 MEDICAL CODING.


                                                 


Medical coding is the transformation of healthcare diagnosis, procedures, medical services, and equipment into universal medical alphanumeric codes. Later they are billed to insurance companies to claim insurance and for the payment purposes. Coding allows uniform documentation between medical facilities. Coding allows administrations to look at the prevalence and effectiveness of treatment in their facilities like hospitals. There are three sets of codes : ICD, CPT and HCPCS.

                                             ICD codes or International Classification of Diseases are diagnostic codes that create a uniform vocabulary for describing the cause of injury, illness and death. This code set was established by the World Health Organisation (WHO). ICD codes are used to represent a doctor's doctor's diagnosis and the patient's condition. In the billing process these codes are used to determine medical necessity. For example, ICD code A30.9 denotes leprosy.

                                             


 Leprosy is a chronic infectious disease caused by Mycobacterium leprae, an acid fast rod shaped bacillus. These mainly affects the skin, the peripheral nerves, mucosa of the upper respiratory tract and the eyes. It is a disease that causes severe, disfiguring skin sores and nerve damage in the arms legs and skin areas around your body. Leprosy is curable and treatment in the early stages can prevent disability.

                           The main symptom of leprosy is disfiguring skin sores, lumps or bumps that won't go away after several weeks or months. Symptoms include light-colored or red skin patches with reduced sensation, numbness and weakness in hands and feet. Blisters, loss of colour, rashes, ulcers or redness on the skin are also common symptoms. Leprosy can be cured with 6-12 months of multi-drug therapy. Early treatment avoids disability.
