Description

Some of the most complex coding involves pulmonary and other respiratory conditions. In this webinar, we dive deep into coding for COPD, emphysema, and asthma; discover different strains of influenza and how they are coded differently; explore pneumonia combination codes; delve into codes for respiratory failure. We also address coding for COVID-19 and give tips for querying to ensure accurate reporting.

Objectives:

  • Identify strains of influenza that have specific codes
  • Differentiate between upper and lower respiratory infection
  • Assign codes for COPD with other respiratory conditions
  • Apply coding guidelines for COVID-19
  • Recognize the impact of respiratory failure coding on DRG assignment

Target Audience

  • Facility Coders (inpatient/outpatient)
  • Professional Fee Coders
  • Clinical Documentation Improvement Professionals
  • Students

    I really liked knowing that pneumonia and bronchitis are lower respiratory infections and how to code them with the COPD. Very helpful.

    Pay attention to COPD, asthma, emphysema, respiratory failure. I didn’t know chronic obstructive bronchitis w/ emphysema would be coded J44.9, logic would make sense if J43.9 is coded because it would be a more specific code
