Filopto Help Manual

 

Filopto offers two levels of ICD9 to ICD10 mapping capabilities.  The basic solution is offered standard in the ICD9 code screen and is based on the Federal Government CMS GEMS files, while the more advanced and enhanced mapping tool is available via the optional Medical Coder service (Medical Coding Assistant).

 

By searching for an ICD9 code the display will automatically display the USA Federal Government CMS GEMS base mapping for the ICD9 code to ICD10 codes.

 

 

IMPORTANT:

 

Disclaimer: This ICD-9 to ICD-10 tool is based on the General Equivalency Mapping (GEMS) files published by CMS, and is not intended to be used as an ICD-10 conversion or crosswalk tool, and in no way guarantees clinical accuracy. This tool is subject to the limitations and disclaimers as stated and published by CMS. While many ICD-9 codes map directly to ICD-10 codes, clinical analysis may be needed to determine which code(s) is most apt for that particular case. Be certain to always review the mapping results prior to applying them.  For a more comprehensive ICD-9 to ICD-10 mapping, we recommend using the optional "Medical Coding Assistant monthly service".  For more information call Accra Solutions Inc. sales department.
