Final Implementation of ICD-10 and DSM-5 Documentation Requirements- Required by 4/1/17

Effective April 1^st, 2017 all new and updated behavioral health care documentation and claiming requires utilization of only ICD-10 diagnosis (Dx) codes. (That is, DSM-IV-TR codes will not be utilized in new or updated Medical Records, nor entered into InSyst.)

 

Up until 4/1/17, providers may continue to utilize DSM-IV-TR Codes in InSyst and within their Medical Records—if they are accompanied by the cross-walked ICD-10 codes. All existing MH records as of 4/1/17 will need to be updated upon the next client visit (both the Medical Record and InSyst) per the new requirements.
