CPT®↔ ICD-10-CM Crosswalk

The CPT®↔ ICD-10-CM Crosswalk is a valuable tool for medical coders and billers. It allows them to easily convert between CPT® codes (used for procedures and services) and ICD-10-CM codes (used for diagnoses). This crosswalk is available with a subscription to Basic Coder, Pro Fee, or Complete Coder on the AAPC website.

To use the crosswalk, simply enter your CPT® code (series 10000-90000) or valid ICD-10-CM code in the appropriate box. The crosswalk will then provide you with the corresponding code in the other system. This can save you time and reduce the risk of coding errors.

One of the main benefits of using the CPT®↔ ICD-10-CM Crosswalk is that it helps ensure accurate coding on Medicare and private payer claims. By using the top ICD-10-CM or CPT® codes submitted on these claims, you can increase the chances of your claims being accepted and paid in a timely manner.

In addition to the crosswalk, AAPC also offers a variety of other resources to help with medical coding and billing. These include coding books, online training courses, and certification exams. By staying up-to-date on the latest coding guidelines and best practices, you can improve your skills and advance your career in the healthcare industry.
