Description
ICD-10-CM diagnostic coding for the urinary system requires a strong grasp of urinary anatomy and disease processes. In this webinar, we will delve into the anatomy and pathophysiology associated with the urinary system and its impact on other body systems. This will be a springboard to address commonly miscoded conditions related to the kidneys and other parts of the urinary tract, including hypertensive chronic kidney disease, cardiorenal syndrome, and complications from renal transplant.
Objectives:
-
Recognize key parts of urinary anatomy and function
-
Apply code sequencing and instructional notes to coding scenarios
-
Identify complications of kidney transplants
-
Recognize how the kidneys play a role in hypertension
Presenter
Terri Reid, CCS, CCS-P, CDIP, AHIMA-Approved ICD-10-CM/PCS Trainer Terri comes to Haugen group with 25+ years of health information management experience in coding, auditing and education. She spent a number of years volunteering as an EMT and working in an Emergency Department before she transitioned into a career coding ED records. It wasn’t long before she was trained to code SDS and IP records eventually using her clinical background to help pioneer a concurrent query program at a level I trauma facility in the northeast. With the implementation of ICD-10, she helped develop coding protocols as well as provide education to physicians on the impact of their documentation. In addition to her HIM credentials (CDIP, CCS, CCS-P), Terri is also a certified paralegal and uses this knowledge to research and interpret various coding references in order to support coding advice. Her most frequently used auditing phrase is “There’s a Coding Clinic for that.” She is fascinated with new technology and loves to examine the etiology and impact of disease processes on the human body.
