In our materials, we strive to provide our audience with useful and timely information. The live audioconfer-ence will follow the enclosed agenda. Occasionally, our speakers will refer to the enclosed materials. Wehave noticed that non-HCPro audioconference materials often follow the speakers’ presentations bullet-by-bullet and page-by-page. However, because our presentations are less rigid and rely more on speaker inter-action, we do not include each speaker’s entire presentation. The enclosed materials contain helpful forms,crosswalks, policies, charts, and graphs. We hope that you will find this information useful in the future.

ICD-9 Codes that Support Medical Necessity

It is the responsibility of the provider to code to the highest level specified in the

ICD-9-CM (e.g., to the fourth or fifth digit). The correct use of an ICD-9-CM code

listed below does not assure coverage of a service. The service must be reasonable

and necessary in the specific case and must meet the criteria specified in this

determination.

The following list includes symptom, condition and specific diagnosis codes.

Physical therapy services are generally directed toward physical impairments

represented by symptoms and conditions. However in many instances, the ICD-9-

CM symptom and condition narratives do not describe circumstances for which

physical therapy services may be reasonable and necessary. Specific diagnosis

codes (e.g., bronchiectasis, Tietze's disease, Colles' fracture) are therefore

included for these situations. In order for the ICD-9-CM code to support medical

necessity for PT services, the symptom or condition for which PT is being rendered

should be coded along with the underlying medical condition.
