Description

This ICD-10-CM course Injury, Poisoning, and Other External Causes (Trauma), presents an overview of codes that report accidents, assaults, and other external causes of injuries and illness. This course covers VWXY codes, the structure and format of Chapter 20 codes, and the opportunity to apply these codes to case scenarios.

Objectives:

Lesson 1: Medical Terminology and Anatomy

  • Differentiate between body planes
  • Identify the different parts of a long bone
  • Identify certain fractures as open vs. closed or displaced vs. nondisplaced

Lesson 2: General Code Format and Conventions

  • Select the 7th character of episode of care for individual case scenarios
  • Assign the first character of codes for injuries of specific body parts

Lesson 3: ICD-10-CM Coding for Trauma

  • Apply category-specific seventh character extensions to fracture codes
  • Differentiate between burns and corrosions in the ICD-10-CM classification

Lesson 4: Poisonings, Adverse Effects, and Underdosings

  • Identify whether a patient had a poisoning, adverse effect, or underdosing based on the sixth character
  • Describe when an underdosing code is used
