Frequently asked questions

Which code sets can I look up here?

ICD-10-CM, ICD-10-CA, HCPCS Level II, OHIP, BC MSP, Alberta AHCIP. Each has its own search and directory, and every code has a page with its description, notes and place in the list.

Which code set should I use?

In the United States, ICD-10-CM for diagnoses and HCPCS Level II for supplies, drugs and services that CPT does not cover. In Canada, ICD-10-CA for hospital records abstracted to CIHI, and the provincial diagnostic codes (OHIP, BC MSP, Alberta) for physician claims in those provinces.

Are these the current releases?

Each code set shows its release and effective date on every page. Vero Codes reads the same catalogs when it suggests codes from a note, and a new release replaces the old one when its publisher issues it.

Can these pages replace the official code sets?

No. They are a reference for finding codes. Confirm a code against the publisher’s current release and the payer’s rules before you submit it.
