How will the system handle accounts that were admitted on or prior to Sept. 30, 2015 and discharged on or after Oct. 1, 2015?

  • ICD-10-Evident-Software Functionality and Processes

ICD-10 codes are required on claims for discharges on or after Oct. 1, 2015. Accounts discharged on or after that date should be coded in ICD-10. Programming will be in place that will pull ICD-9 codes to claims for patients who were discharged prior to Oct. 1, 2015. Unless Evident and TruBridge are specifically notified of payers that will continue to accept ICD-9 codes after Oct. 1, 2015, all claims discharged on or after Oct. 1 will pull ICD-10 codes.
