ICD-10 Rural or Urban; It Impacts All Providers (+playlist)
This CMS video discusses the impact of ICD-10 Implementation on all providers.
For physcians and other treating clinicians, one of the most important considerations is documentation. If you accurately and concisely document a disease, then you have the best chance of you or your coder finding an appropriate ICD-10 (or ICD-9) code.
I hope this video is helpful.
