ICD-10 codes are specific and granular
Number of ICD-9 codes are 14,000, ICD-10 codes are 1,40,000 codes.
ICD-10 codes has 7 characters
ICD-10 needs place holder
ICD-10 coding demands encounter specificity like initial, subsequent or
Sequela
ICD-10 coding demands activity codes and Y codes
ICD-10 Guidelines are different from ICD-9
ICD-10 Guidelines are complex and especially many new codes were
added.
New chapters, New categories were added in ICD-10

4. 


ICD-10 Codes has more combination codes
ICD-10 Injury codes are organized by anatomical site
ICD-10 has 2 types of Excludes. Excludes takes more
time in coding.
ICD-9 Excludes is totally different from ICD-10 Excludes.

ICD-10 impact will be more on physicians are new codes
were added. Coders need to educate the physician about
the documentation.
Billing companies needs ICD-10 subject matter experts

conversion projects
 ICD-10 Trainers should have at least 5 years coding
experience
 ICD-10 coding demands clinical knowledge.. ICD-10 Trainers
should be professional doctors
 ICD-10 trainers should teach how to convert ICD-9 to ICD10..
