Diagnosis coding is the process of translating clinical documentation of a patient’s medical conditions, illnesses, and injuries into ICD-10-CM Diagnosis Codes. ICD-10-CM is used in all healthcare settings to enable accurate record-keeping, data analysis, and the submission of valid healthcare claims for reimbursement.
