Is your software updated to allow for ICD10?  Are you sure it's not just a setting?  Are software has a place to indicate how many dxs we want to print on a claim.

Can you tell us the name of your software?

We bill on a software called the Sammy systems from ICS Software out of New York.  We still cannot put more than 4 diagnosis codes on the claim, even though we're using the updated (02-12) HCFA claim form and there's spaces for 12 dx codes. 

When I posed the question to our software vendor that we needed to be able to use more than just 4 diagnosis codes, their comment was "it's not a priority right now since ICD-10 was delayed until 2015."  Unless an insurance company sends us something stating we have to be able to use more than 4 dx codes (right now we're having to "split" bill claims w/more than 4 dx codes) our software people said it's just something they will eventually get to.   ::)

I think eventually insurance companies will get tired of seeing split claims come thru from providers and do some type of mandate for everything to be on one claim as much as possible and for us, it seems like we're going to have to wait for that mandate (or October 2015 - whichever comes first) for that to happen.

Wow!  That would not be ok with me.  The new form was not delayed and the new form has room for 12 dx codes.  The number of dx codes is completely separate from ICD10.  We have several situations that require more than 4 codes and we were very happy to switch to the new form. 

You are kind of in a hard place unless you are considering switching software.
