According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC), accidental falls are the leading cause of injury for adults 65 and older, with more than 1 in 4 older adults reporting falls every year.
During the next live edition of Talk Ten Tuesday, Dr. James S. Kennedy will discuss the clinical concept of the “fragility fracture,” and how the under-documentation of fragility fractures results in inaccurate ICD-10-CM coding, adversely affecting Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS) MS-DRGs, hospital-acquired conditions (HACs), and other quality measures. Be sure that your coding supervisor, clinical documentation integrity (CDI) director, and quality teams listen in to partner collectively with the medical staff with identifying this prevalent condition.
The popular weekly Internet broadcast will also feature these additional instantly recognizable panelists, who will report more news during their segments:
• Social Determinants of Health: Tiffany Ferguson, CEO for Phoenix Medical Management, Inc., will report on the news that is happening at the intersection of medical record auditing and the SDoH;
