CPT®↔ ICD-9-CM Crosswalk

The CPT®↔ ICD-9-CM Crosswalk is a useful tool for medical coders and billers. It allows you to easily convert between CPT® codes (series 10000-90000) and ICD-9-CM codes. This crosswalk is available with a Basic Coder, Pro Fee, or Complete Coder subscription from AAPC.

To use the crosswalk, simply enter your CPT® code or valid ICD-9 vol 1 code (complete, not truncated code) in the appropriate box. The crosswalk will then provide you with the corresponding ICD-9-CM or CPT® codes that are commonly submitted on Medicare and private payer claims.

This tool can save you time and reduce errors in the coding and billing process. It ensures that you are using the most up-to-date and accurate codes for reimbursement. Additionally, it can help you identify any discrepancies between the two code sets, allowing you to catch any potential coding errors before they are submitted.

With a subscription to Basic Coder, Pro Fee, or Complete Coder, you will have access to the most current version of the crosswalk. This is important as codes are frequently updated and changed. By having access to the latest crosswalk, you can ensure that your coding and billing practices are in compliance with industry standards.

In conclusion, the CPT®↔ ICD-9-CM Crosswalk is an essential tool for medical coders and billers. It simplifies the process of converting between CPT® and ICD-9-CM codes and helps ensure accuracy and compliance in coding and billing.
