ICD-10-CM requires coders to code the trimester and the weeks of gestation for pregnant women. What impact might this have on diagnosis abstracting?


◦ It will require querying the physician if the documentation is not specific enough.
◦ It has no real impact on the coders, other than the fact that they will need to find and code the information.
◦ Coders will have to develop a new methodology for coding obstetric cases.
◦ Coders must assign a character for the episode of care for coding obstetric cases.
