ICD-10 Concepts Explained

The Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS) has released two animated shorts that explain key ICD-10 concepts.

Less than 4 minutes each, the videos are available at cms.gov/ICD-10:

• “Introduction to ICD-10 Coding” gives an overview of ICD-10’s features and explains the benefits of the new code set to patients and to the health care community.
• “ICD-10 Coding and Diabetes” uses diabetes as an example to show how the code set captures important clinical details.
