Coding and documentation handouts
All information is for educational purposes only and is designed to provide accurate and trustworthy information on a variety of clinical related topics. WellSense follows all ICD-10 coding guidelines and CMS regulations, which encourage providers to document with the highest specificity and provide clarity on all diagnoses submitted within an encounter. We focus on best documentation practices for conditions, so the information offered is relevant to all risk adjustment models and patient populations. The handouts are focused on the clinical parameters of each condition, aimed at healthcare practitioners. However, we will not be providing guidance on billing practices nor claim submission. Clinicians are ultimately responsible for ensuring compliance with all coding guidelines and requirements.
