Optimizing Retrospectives on Distributed Agile TeamsSococo
Effective Retrospectives are the key to high performing Agile teams - but what happens when this team is distributed across several time zones and physical locations? How does a ScrumMaster bring that high level of team engagement so critical to continuous improvement when the team is not physically co-located? At Sococo, our success as an Agile team lies in the self-examination practices we’ve established with the help of our Agile partners.

Cultural Self-Inventory for Distributed Agile TeamsSococo
On an Agile team, the main goal is to create collaborative solutions. For distributed Agile teams, this can be a bit more challenging to achieve without the proper structure in place. But what is the proper structure, and how can we achieve it? Can we select structures that prioritize individuals and their interactions over tools and processes? Can distributed configurations be set up to address a team’s social needs in line with Agile cultural values?
Join us for our next #SococoLife webinar, Cultural Self Inventory for Distributed Agile teams, where we provide a detailed self-inventory that any distributed team or team member can use as a reminder to take a step back from tooling and inspect/adapt the communications structures that support your Agile culture.

The World Health Organization (WHO) released the new International Classification of Disease (ICD-11) which would come into effect in January 2022. This document takes a closer look at revisions made to the document and its possible impact on healthcare payers.
Our work as consultants primarily involve implementing CRM systems to consolidate clinical and administrative data from EHRs and health plans for patient care coordination, medical tourism, transitional care, aftercare and case management. In the case of a hospital setting, they are using Mckesson Paragon EHR using ICD 10, CPT and LOINC to capture data associated to problem lists, medical history, procedures, medical orders, and test results. In the case of medications, they are using RxNorm. The system can handle SNOMED but they are only using ICD. In the case of the health plan, the data we gather is based on ICD, CPT, and NDC only. In another project, we are working to establish a centralized system to capture all test results of Puerto Rico for abnormalities identification, patient and provider notification. In addition, this data will be used to analyze health population the data we are receiving include terminology type, LOINC or CPT. Depending on the laboratory information system vendor we get the CPT or LOINC code.
Understand what ICD-10 is all about, what it looks like, and how it will affect you and your team. Learn how to create a focused and organized strategic ICD-10 plan
Evaluate and enhance clinical documentation to capture greater detail. Set up and establish documentation agreement with code factors. Get an important timeline to follow so you’re prepped and ready.
"ICD allows the counting of diseases, injuries, symptoms, reasons for encounter, factors that influence health status, and external causes of disease and death, such as accidents."

ICD-10-CM/PCS
THE NEXT GENERATION OF CODING
ICN 901044 August 2014
This publication provides the following information on the International Classification of Diseases, 10th
Edition, Clinical Modification/Procedure Coding System (ICD-10-CM/PCS):
� ICD-10-CM/PCS compliance date;
� Use of external cause and unspecified codes in ICD-10-CM;
� Continued use of Current Procedural Terminology (CPT) codes;
� ICD-10-CM/PCS – an improved classification system;
� ICD-10-CM/PCS examples;
� Structural differences between International Classification of Diseases, 9th Edition, Clinical Modification
(ICD-9-CM) and ICD-10-CM/PCS; and
� Resources.
When “you” is used in this publication, we are referring to health care providers.
ICD-10-CM/PCS COMPLIANCE DATE
The compliance date for implementation of ICD-10-CM/PCS is October 1, 2015, for all Health Insurance
Portability and Accountability Act (HIPAA)-covered entities. ICD-10-CM/PCS will enhance accurate payment
for services rendered and help evaluate medical processes and outcomes. A number of other countries have
already moved to ICD-10, including:
� United Kingdom (1995);
� France (1997);
� Australia (1998);
� Germany (2000); and
� Canada (2001).
USE OF EXTERNAL CAUSE AND UNSPECIFIED CODES IN ICD-10-CM
Similar to ICD-9-CM, there is no national requirement for mandatory ICD-10-CM external cause code
reporting. Unless you are subject to a State-based external cause code reporting mandate or these codes
are required by a particular payer, you are not required to report ICD-10-CM codes found in Chapter 20,
External Causes ...
2. Part 1
Past
In 1959, the U.S. Public Health Service published the International Classification of
Diseases, Adapted for Indexing of Hospital Records and Operation Classification
(ICDA). HIPAA considers Volumes 1 and 2 of
ICD-9-CM to be the required code set for
diseases, injuries, impairments, other health
problems and their manifestations, and other
causes of injury, disease, and impairment.
Volume 3 of ICD-9-CM is the required code set
for procedures or actions performed for
inpatients and billed by hospitals
The ICD 9 manual was established in 1975. The ICD-9 Manual was created in
Europe and then later adopted in the United States. The current version was
established by the World Health Organization. It is the oldest method of tracking
diseases. The idea to develop this manual was based on the need for a more
efficient basis for storage and retrieval of diagnostic data. It is also necessary for
physicians in other parts of the country or even the world to be on the same
page with their diagnoses.
ICD-9 contains a lists of codes corresponding to diseases and procedures. The
United States Department of Health & Human Services and the Centers for
Medicare and Medicaid Services created ICD-9-CM as an extension of the
Ninth Revision, International Classification of Diseases (ICD-9), which the World
Health Organization established to track mortality statistics across the world.
Some of the reasons physicians and hospitals cling to ICD-9 include its less
rigorous clinical documentation than ICD-10 and its ability to justify common
patient care episodes with general codes; its implementation timing coincides
with other major U.S. health IT initiatives including nationwide EHR adoption,
establishing national health information exchanges and data-intensive
accountable care organizations.
3. Present
The ICD-9 is the International Classification of
Diseases, ninth revision, covering the years 1979 to
1998. The codes in this publication represent all
diseases, conditions or circumstances known to
cause a person's death. Managed by the World
Health Organization, these codes exist as the
standard used in medical records for conditions
diagnosed globally. Medical personnel handling billing, insurance, health
records and statistics are expected to remain up to date with the ever-
changing ICD standards, with minor updates made annually and major revisions
published each decade.
A standardized classification of disease, injuries, and causes of death, by
etiology and anatomic localization and codified into a 6-digit number, which
allows clinicians, statisticians, politicians, health planners and others to speak a
common language, both US and internationally.
The abbreviation stands for International Classification of Diseases, Ninth
Revision, and Clinical Modification. Medical facilities use ICD-9 codes any time
they receive patients. When physicians make their diagnoses, medical coders
and billers assign the appropriate code. In the United States, the ICD-9 code is
used with the CPT code, which is for procedures performed in the facility. These
codes are used to generate bills for facility reimbursement in cases where
patients have health insurance. The ICD-9 is split into several sections that
correspond to a type of disease or injury. Each section is assigned to a range of
numbers, each of which denote a medical condition. In many cases, these
medical conditions are split into more specific afflictions.
4. Future
ICD-10 is the 10th revision of the International
Statistical Classification of Diseases and
Related Health Problems (ICD), a medical
classification list by the World Health
Organization (WHO). The system uses three
to seven digit alphanumeric codes to specify
medical procedures. The first digit indicates
the section of medical practice (surgery,
administration, measuring and monitoring,
etc.) and the following digits specify the
body system, root operation, body part,
approach and the device used. The seventh
character is a qualifying digit. The crucial first
three digits of a code are stored in the ICD
manual for reference.
The ICD-10 replaced the ninth revision of the system in 1993 and the ICD-10-PCS
is a clinical modification of the original ICD-10. ICD-10-PCS codes must be used
on all HIPAA transactions, starting in October 2013. The U.S. has been using ICD-
9-CM since 1979, and it is not sufficiently robust to serve the health care needs of
the future. The content is no longer clinically accurate and has limited data
about patients’ medical conditions and hospital inpatient procedures, the
number of available codes is limited, and the coding structure is too restrictive.
The U.S. cannot directly compare morbidity diagnosis data to state and national
mortality data, because mortality data have already transitioned to ICD-10
code sets. ICD-10-CM/PCS code sets will enhance the quality of data for
tracking public health conditions, improved data for epidemiological research,
measuring outcomes and care provided to patients, making clinical decisions,
identifying fraud and abuse, and designing payment systems/processing claims.
There are nearly 19 times as many procedure codes in ICD-10 than in ICD-9-CM
volume 3. There are nearly 5 times as many diagnosis codes in ICD-10-CM than
in ICD-9-CM. ICD-10 has alphanumeric categories instead of numeric ones. The
order of some chapters have changed, some titles have been renamed, and
conditions have been grouped differently.
5. Part 2
Organization
The ICD-9 manual is divided into three main volumes.
Volume 1 is located in between Volumes 2 and 3. This is the tabular list to
diseases. Here is where you will come to verify your codes.
Volume 2 is located in the beginning of the book and lists all of the diseases
alphabetically. Within this volume, there are three tables. The first table can be
found on page 168 and this is the hypertension table. Whenever you need to
code anything that has to do with hypertension, this is where you will go.
The second table lists all of the neoplasms by site. Then they list different codes
for the type of neoplasm. Whenever you need to code any neoplasm, this is
where you will go. This table can be found on page 220.
The third and last table in volume 2 is the Table of Drugs and Chemicals. You will
use codes here when someone is being poisoned or something they took is
making them sick.
After the Table of Drugs and Chemicals, there is another section for external
causes. This is where you would code accidents and the places they occurred
at.
Volume 3 can be found at the end of the manual and contains the Alphabetic
Index to Procedures as well as the Tabular list following it.
6. Part 3
How to find a code
Finding a code can be easy if you know how to look for it. Here are some steps
you can take when you are looking up a code:
1. Figure out which part of the disease is the part to look up. Usually this will
be the last word in the disease or condition.
2. Find the second word in the condition. Look underneath the first word you
looked up. You should see a more specific code to the condition you
want.
3. Code everything! Don’t forget you want the most specific code possible.
Make sure you look for all of the words in the condition.
4. Verify. After you have found the code that you think is right, verify that it is
correct by checking the number in the Tabular list. If the disease you find
there matches the disease that you were originally looking for.
5. Success! If the code you found matches the one you were looking for you
have found the correct code successfully!
