ICD 9 and 10 history
• ICD 9 developed by WHO
• ICD 9 Clinical Modification developed for US in 1979.
• CPT (clinical Procedural Terminology) codes used for
ambulatory reporting.
• ICD 10 developed in 1990’s
• ICD 10 codes are now available in EPIC as of Oct 1 2013
• Mandatory use of ICD 10 is Oct 1, 2014.
• CPT codes will continue to be used for physician
practice settings/ office billing
ICD 10 after Oct 1 2014
• Required for HIPAA transactions
• ICD 10 CM (Diagnosis) codes Required for
diagnosis of all services inpt or outpt
• ICD 10 PCS (procedure) codes will be required
on inpt claims
• EPIC is starting the migration from ICD 9 to 10
codes now, and EPIC Premier inpt billing
function includes the new ICD 10 coding
structure.
ICD 10 Changes
Over 50% of new Dx are musculoskel, and 36 % are to distinguish R from L
ICD 10 Changes
• Up to 7 characters
• Includes complication, severity, sequelae and
other disease related parameters
• Includes laterality
• Includes initial or subsequent encounter code
• Improved consistency of terminology
• Combination codes are common i.e DM 2,
controlled with renal manifestation
• Has space holders for expansion

Most common issues in ICD 10
• Laterality – as you code, EPIC will prompt you
if right or left is required
• Trimester specific
• Many new orthopedic codes
• Specificity is increased dramatically, so
physician documentation must be more
specific too.
Top 5 Clinical Documentation Issues
•
•
•
•
•
CHF
Sepsis
Renal Failure
Pneumonia
Respiratory Failure
• Don’t use “Other” or accept a nonspecific
diagnosis like DM, when a more specific term
exists:
• “DM 2 controlled with renal manifestation”
ICD 10 codes
• Epic is migrating codes so over next year you
may search using known ICD 9 codes
• Can keep your PMHx and ongoing problem list
NONSPECIFIC,
• But your visit diagnosis list must be as specific,
detailed, and include as many modifiers/
comorbidities/severity codes as possible
Common Diagnoses
• ICD 9
• ICD 10
• 250.02 DM 2 no
mention of controlled
or complication
• E11.65 DM 2 with
hyperglycemia
• 250.43 DM 1 with renal
manifestation
• E10.21 DM 1 with
nephropathy AND
• E10.65 DM1 with
hyperglycemia

Quality Performance hinges on
Documentation
• For inpts affects the hospital quality score
• For our pts affects our practice score
• Lack of clear documentation results in
inappropriate assignment of complication codes
for expected consequence of renal disease
• Improved documentation results in lower
reported complication rates,
• higher complexity/ comorbidity scores reflect
sicker population we care for.
Estimated impact on physician practice
• 10 -20 % increase in denials
• Differences in authorization and referral
triggers
• Increased scrutiny of documentation
• Impact on contracting/ preferred provider
status based on severity of illness as reflected
in coding.
ICD 10 and EPIC
• ICD 10 diagnosis calculator goes live on
Premier Epic Oct 28 2013
• Training modules available on Healthstream
• Some codes require specific information, and
a coding window will open to fill in R vs L,
initial visit vs followup, sequelae.
• Many codes won’t require more specificity,
but for visits we should try to be as specific as
possible.
ICD 10 and EPIC
• Many codes won’t require more specificity,
but for visits we should try to be as specific as
possible.
• We can double click item on the problem list
like DM, HTN, Other disorder of renal etc, and
make it more specific, without losing /
deleting associations.
Make the Diagnosis of
Kidney Disease
• Criteria
The ICD9 Code for CKD is 585.x where x = stage

Acute Dialysis Quality Initiative
• RIFLE Criteria Helps risk stratify patients with
acute renal failure.
• Increased mortality seen with increases in
creatinine of 0.3 to 0.5 mg/dl
– 70 % increase for all inpts,
– 300 % increase in cardiac surgery pts
Acute Renal Failure
• Definition may depend on whom you ask
– Surgeon - - low urine output
– Intensivist-- severe acidemia
– Nephrologist-- rising serum creatinine
• Frequency - depends on clinical setting
– 1% of all admissions to hospital
– 2-5% of all individuals during a hospitalization
– 4-15% during cardiopulmonary bypass
– 10-30% of all admissions to ICU
Definition
• ‘…a sudden and severe decrease in
the glomerular filtration rate (GFR)
sufficient to cause increases in BUN
and Scr (azotemia), Na/H2O retention
(edema), and development of
acidemia and hyperkalemia…’
• review of 27 studies showed no 2 used
the same definition “chronic renal
confusion”
What’s in a name?
• lack of a universally recognized
definition of ARF
• 2004 consensus conference
– proposed the term acute kidney injury
(AKI) to reflect the entire spectrum of ARF
recognizing that an acute decline in
kidney function is often secondary to an
injury that causes functional or structural
changes in the kidneys
Newest Definition:
Mehta CritCare 2007
• An abrupt (within 48 h) reduction in
kidney function currently defined as:
– an absolute increase in serum creatinine
of either >= 0.3 mg/dl,
– or a percentage increase of >= 50 % or a
reduction in UOP (documented oliguria of
< 0.5 ml/kg per h for > 6)
RIFLE criteria

•
Risk low uop for 6 hours, creat up 1.5 to 2 times baseline
Injury creat up 2 to 3 times baseline, low uop for 12 hours

RIFLE criteria
• When markers of severity of illness are looked
at excluding renal data, no difference in
groups is seen.
The differential for any lab
abnormality is:
•
•
•
•
•
•
•
Lab error
Lab error
Lab error
Iatrogenic
Polypharmacy
Real disease
IN THIS ORDER!
Acute renal failure (ARF)
• Differential for Lab abnormality: Causes:
– A rise in the BUN level can occur without renal
injury, such as in GI or mucosal bleeding, steroid
use, or protein loading (such as IV nutrition)
– A rise in the creatinine level can result from
medications (eg, cimetidine, trimethoprim) that
inhibit the kidney’s tubular secretion, or an
increase in creatinine production such as seen in
Rhabdomyolysis. (muscle breakdown)
– True Anuria is most commonly the result of an
obstructed foley catheter, or an error in recording
output. The worst cause of anuria is cortical
necrosis.
Acute renal failure (ARF)
• An abrupt or rapid decline in renal
function
• Marked by a rise in BUN (azotemia) or
serum creatinine concentration
– Immediately after a kidney injury, BUN or
creatinine levels may be normal
• The only sign of a kidney injury may be
decreased urine production
• Use RIFLE Criteria to evaluate Risk.
Acute renal failure (ARF)
• History and Physical examination:
– Nephrotoxic drug ingestion
– History of trauma or unaccustomed exertion
– Blood loss or transfusions
– Congestive heart failure
– Exposure to toxic substances, such as ethyl
alcohol or ethylene glycol
Acute renal failure (ARF)
• History and Physical examination:
– Exposure to mercury vapors, lead, cadmium,
or other heavy metals, which can be
encountered in welders and miners
– Hypotension
– Volume contraction
• Vomiting/Diarrhea/Sweating/Nursing Home
– Evidence of connective tissue disorders or
autoimmune diseases
Pathophysiology
• ARF may occur in 3 clinical patterns
BUN:Cr > 20:1
BUN:Cr 10-20:1
BUN:Cr > 20:1
Pathophysiology
• ARF may occur in 3 clinical patterns
• Suggested by labwork:
BUN:Cr > 20:1
Pre-Renal or Post-Renal
BUN:Cr 10-20:1 Intra-Renal
BUN:Cr < 10:1
Extrinsic Production of Creatinine
(rhabdomyolysis),
this pattern also seen in dialysis patients)
Prerenal ARF
• Prerenal ARF represents the most common form of
kidney injury and often leads to intrinsic ARF if it is
not promptly corrected
• From any form of extreme volume loss
– GI, renal (Vomiting, Diarrhea, diuretics, polyuria),
cutaneous (eg, burns), and internal or external
hemorrhage can result in this syndrome
• Systemic vasodilation or decreased renal perfusion
•
•
•
•
Anesthetics
Drug overdose
Heart failure
Shock (eg, sepsis, anaphylaxis)
Approach to ARF
• Pre-Renal
– Most common
– Due to NPO, Diuretics, ACE inhibitors,
NSAIDS
– Due to renal artery disease, CHF with poor
EF.
– Usually BUN / creat ratio over 20.
– Usually creat < 2.5
Approach to ARF
• Intra-Renal
– Most commonly pre-renal tipping over
into true renal injury.
– Acute Tubular Necrosis is result (70%)
– Tubulo-Interstitial Nephritis (20%)
– Acute vasculitis/GN rare (5-10 %)
Intrinsic Renal Failure
• Intrinsic ARF
– acute tubular necrosis
– acute interstitial nephritis
– acute glomerulonephritis
– acute vascular syndromes
– intratubular obstruction
• BUN:Creat ratio 10-20 :1
• In Pre-renal ARF, once creat is > 2.5,
there is some degree of ATN
Intrinsic ARF
Urinalysis
• Intra-Renal
– Acute Tubular Necrosis (70%)
• Dirty brown casts, low UOP
– Tubulo-Interstitial Nephritis (20%)
• Eosinophils in blood or urine,
• Potassium out of proportion to creat.
• Normal BP, related to drug exposure
– Acute vasculitis/GN rare (5-10 %)
• Proteinuria, hematuria, RBC casts
Approach to ARF
• Post- Renal
– Most commonly due to obstruction at
bladder outlet
•
•
•
•
Prostate problems
Neurogenic bladder
Stone
Urethral stricture (esp after CABG)
Acute Renal failure
Complications of acute renal failure
Hyperkalemia ( ECG abnormalities)
Decreased bicarbonate (acidosis)
Elevated urea
Elevated creatinine
Elevated uric acid
Hypocalcaemia
Hyperphosphatemia
