ICD-10-CM: Coding of Chromosomal Abnormalities reflects the exponential growth of genomic testing and therapeutics. Diagnosis of these conditions often occurs in the obstetrical and pediatric settings. Accurate and complete coding requires detailed understanding of how abnormalities are characterized (mosaicism, numerical and structural abnormalities), how tests are used to determine carrier or susceptibility status, and interpreting the unique language used by providers to identify conditions.

ICD-10-CM: Coding of Chromosomal Abnormalities reflects the exponential growth of genomic testing and therapeutics. Diagnosis of these conditions often occurs in the obstetrical and pediatric settings.
Accurate and complete coding requires detailed understanding of how abnormalities are characterized (mosaicism, numerical and structural abnormalities), how tests are used to determine carrier or susceptibility status, and interpreting the unique language used by providers to identify conditions. Specifically:
- Learn to correctly code the results of genetic testing including genetic carrier status, genetic susceptibility, and screening tests
- Understand concepts related to chromosomes and gene defects that are used in the ICD-10-CM Code set
- Compare and contrast normal chromosomal arrangements compare with various abnormal arrangement
- Recognize the descriptions of numerical and structural abnormalities of chromosomes and locating the correct code
- Classify chromosomal abnormalities associated with sex chromosomes and locate the correct code
- Differentiate between problems with an entire chromosome and problems with a single gene and how the coding differs
Course includes:
- A proprietary downloadable chart summarizing chromosomal abnormalities.
- Course features interactive, explanatory images, audio recordings by industry experts, detailed explanations of the coding process, and check yourself quizzes to ensure material is being mastered.
- Bonus content includes carefully selected references from Merck Professional Edition.
- and more!
