October is fast approaching and before long ICD-10 will be in full swing across the medical field in the United States. Greater specificity will be attained in ICD-10 and there will also be an increase in the amount of codes to decipher.

AHIMA listed some of the top problem areas for ICD-10, which were recently discussed on the clinical documentation improvement forum CDItalk. You can read more about these ICD-10 clinical documentation problems and join the discussion on the largest industry resource for real time CDI information.
