On Episode 204, we're circling back to a topic from Episode 202: obesity reporting!
Our host, Paula Digby, is tackling the term "morbidly obese." Does that phrase give you the warm and fuzzies? Probably not, and it turns out, the ICD-10 Coordination and Maintenance Committee felt the same way. In their September 2022 discussions, they decided to move away from that language, which led to the new, more specific obesity classes: Class 1, 2, and 3—reported with the E66.81- series.
So, tune in to hear all about that change and what it means for coding. And as always, we'd love to hear what you think! Send in your comments and questions, because you know we absolutely love them here at Coffee with the Coder®!
