New and expiring ICD 10 codes

You may be aware that on Wednesday, September 30 there are certain ICD-10 diagnoses that will expire. These expired diagnoses will be replaced by updated codes on October 1.

Please familiarize yourself with the list of changes in preparation for this change. The new ICD-10 codes have been added to the Procentive master list and can be added to your Diagnosis Module at any time.

These 2021 ICD-10-CM codes are to be used for discharges occurring from October 1, 2020 through September 30, 2021 and for patient encounters occurring from October 1, 2020 through September 30, 2021.

For your convenience the full 2021 ICD-10 Table and Index (PDF, published by CMS) is available here (obtained from CMS.gov).

Each agency is responsible for adding and removing diagnoses as they deem necessary based on the services they provide. For a guide on updating your Diagnoses Module, please see this article on our Knowledge Hub.

Any expired diagnoses submitted on claims for DOS 10/01/2020 and later will be rejected. For assistance with these rejections please review this article on our Knowledge Hub.

If you need further assistance please submit a ticket to the Procentive Support Desk.
