Chapter 5 of your textbook ICD-10-cm/pcs coding theory and practice, introduces the general coding guidelines section of the icd-10-cm official guidelines for coding and reporting. Using the discussion board rubric listed below as a guide, select two of the general coding guidelines and develop a well-thought-out original response explaining each of the guidelines in your own words. Be sure to be specific and provide examples, using a minimum of one reference to support your point of view.Two of the guidelines: 1. Acute and Chronic Conditions – Acute and chronic conditions – if the same condition is described as both acute (subacute) and chronic, and separate subentries exist in the alphabetic index at the same indentation level, code both and sequence the acute (subacute) code first.2. Syndromes – Follow the alphabetic index guidance when coding syndromes. In the absence of alphabetic index guidance, assign codes for the documented manifestations of the syndrome. additional codes for manifestation are not an integral part of the disease process maybe also be assigned when the condition does not have a unique code.
