Selecting diagnosis codes is faster and easier with Buck's 2026 ICD-10-CM for Hospitals. Designed by coders for coders, this full-color manual includes all the ICD-10 codes that you need for today’s inpatient coding. As coders need extensive knowledge to code with ICD-10-CM - and to choose from the thousands of possible codes - this edition makes it easier with colorful anatomy plates (including Netter’s Anatomy illustrations) to help you understand anatomy and how it can affect your code choices. In addition, it comes with durable spiral binding, and includes a companion website with the latest coding updates.
- At-a-glance Guide to the Updates in the front of the book lists all new, revised, and deleted codes, providing at-a-glance lookup of the coding changes
- Official Guidelines for Coding and Reporting (OGCRs) are listed in full in the Introduction, at the beginning of each chapter, and integrated within the code set, providing easier reference to coding rules when they are needed most
- UNIQUE! Full-color Netter's Anatomy art is included in a separate section for easy reference and cross-referenced within the Tabular List of Diseases and Injuries, to help users understand anatomy and how it may affect choosing codes
- Full-color design includes consistent color-coded symbols and text, providing easier access to codes and coding information.
- Expanded inpatient-specific content in the Tabular List also includes the following inpatient notes and symbols: Unacceptable Principal DX (Indicates info about the healthcare encounter, but is unacceptable as a principal diagnosis for inpatient admission); MCE notes (Definitions of Medicare Coding Edits); CC/MCC (Complication/Comorbidity and Major Complication/Comorbidity); CC/MCC Exclusions (Complication/Comorbidity and Major Complication/Comorbidity Exclusions); MS-DRG notes (Medicare Severity Diagnosis Related Groups); POA (Present on Admission); HAC (Hospital-Acquired Condition)
