The 2022 ICD-10-CM Professional for Physicians, with early delivery, uses our hallmark features and
format, making the challenge of accurate diagnosis coding easier. Developed specifically to meet the
needs of physicians, the Optum360 codebook contains the complete ICD-10-CM code set, which is the
cornerstone for establishing medical necessity, determining coverage, and ensuring appropriate
reimbursement. Symbols in the tabular section identify codes associated with CMS quality payment
program (QPP) measures and CMS hierarchical condition categories (HCC) used in risk adjustment (RA)
coding.
Guaranteed delivery before October 1, 2021. The timing of the CMS release of the Official Guidelines for
Coding and Reporting might not allow for early delivery. Therefore, this early delivery version might
contain the 2021 guidelines. A booklet containing the Official Guidelines for Coding and Reporting for
2022 will be shipped separately if the 2022 guidelines are not available at the time this edition goes to
press.
