ICD-10 can be overwhelming, but, with some strategizing and planning it can be managed. In this presentation we will look at a few ICD-10 fundamentals, then familiarize ourselves with three methods for finding the right ICD-10 code. Each one is a different path, but all lead to the same destination: the right code.
