Find New ICD-9 Code Titles With This Resource

If you're trying to get a handle on the new ICD-9 codes that take effect Oct. 1, you have a new tool to help.

CMS has posted a list of the full and abbreviated code titles at www.CMS.gov/ICD9ProviderDiagnosticCodes/06_codes.asp in the "Downloads" section. (For an overview of the new codes that are likely to impact your payment under HH PPS, see Eli's HCW, Vol. XX, No. 27, p. 210.)
