ICD-10 will save us from the Pandemic!!!
Do not be afraid! Our government has this Coronavirus thing solved!
Sure, we have no readily available test for the virus. Sure, that means the virus can spread uncontrolled and undetected.
If you can’t test, you can’t have an epidemic…. right?
But…. We DO have special guidance from the CDC for Coronavirus ICD-10 coding!
Thank goodness! We’re safe now!

I do like that “dying” is listed as a symptom.
I understand it is a fairly serious symptom….
Hahaha! Hilarious!
I’m a triage RN at a home visit/telehealth company and I’m officially done with coronavirus.
Since this week’s media blitz, I’ve taken a hundred million calls, like this one: “I’m sure it’s just a cold, but can I make a house call appt to get tested for coronavirus? I don’t have a fever or any symptoms, but I’m just worried! Do you take BCBS HMO?”.
Ugh! “First, let me spend the next 10 – 15 mins discussing your lack of symptoms and the protocols involved to be tested for coronavirus.” “Second, No! We do NOT take BCBS HMO (and good luck finding anyone who does.).”
Good luck to all my fellow health care providers in the midst of the madness that is modern healthcare.
