Inaccurate and incomplete diagnosis coding damage Hierarchical Condition Category (HCC) scores for medical
groups in accountable care organizations or involved in risk-based contracts, hurting revenue for future contract years. Practices can increase their risk scoring via accurate diagnosis codes that describe the patient’s conditions and co-morbidities on claim forms. This session will detail how to measure provider risk scores and set a baseline for individual physicians and the practice as a whole to achieve lasting change with proper accounting for riskadjusted
factors, monitoring and feedback.

This session will provide you with the knowledge to:

• Diagram two key concepts of risk-adjusted
  diagnosis coding
• Analyze your own ICD-10 coding use of unspecified
  codes for high-frequency conditions and the use of
  status codes
• Outline a plan to monitor risk scores, educate clinicians
  and provide ongoing feedback
