After many delays, ICD-10 was finally implemented in the U.S. on Oct. 1, 2015. The updated diagnosis code system helps to provide more details regarding what is exactly wrong with a patient. Students can read more about the topic here:
· https://www.cms.gov/Medicare/Coding/ICD10/
· http://library.ahima.org/doc?oid=78673#.WkqBXt-nFhE
Instructions:
For this scavenger, students should use their favorite web search tool to identify a recent news article (published within the last 6 months) that has ICD-10 as a primary topic of discussion.
· Next, the student should write a synopsis of the article. The synopsis should not be a point blank word for word copying of the article, but it should just include key points.
· After the synopsis, the student should write their opinion on how the items discussed, in the article, impact providers now and moving into the future.
Each submission should be a minimum of 200 words long. Remember the item being identified should be a news article (not a research project, dissertation, or blog). Students should refer to the web scavenger hunt rubric prior to submitting their work.
