as a part of your job in the medical office you will be working with claim forms what is the purpose of the ICD code on the medical claim form and does it have an effort on payment from the insurance carrier?

Icd coding is used across the medical field to label and determine specific treatments, tests, diagnosis ECT the insurance companies only pay based on the codes they approve. so if a code is wrong it can cause problems for the pt, doctor, office, ins and lack of payment
