Make sure if you are pushing codes via HL7 that the ICD-10 codes you send exist inside the ICD-10 table in Lytec PM.

Mapping Codes

Lytec 2014 and Lytec 2015 come with a mapping utility that takes all the ICD-9 codes and maps them to ICD-10 using the GEM code set.

Adding Additional Extended Codes

If the codes you have via the mapping utility are not enough and you need to add additional codes, consider:

A. Use Codes on Disk, which can add up to 95,000 ICD-10 codes for you. $495.00 including training and installations of how to use it.

B. Use Encoder Pro, where you can add individual codes on demand and map them to ICD-9. Encoder Pro also comes with so many other options. If you only need a few codes and are not interested in Codes on Disk or Encoder Pro, you can manually add the codes you will need. $149.
