Problems and diagnoses can be recorded in SNOMED CT in the EHR, while the cross-mappings to ICD-10-CM can be used to assist the reimbursement process. For example, the physician documents that a patient has congestive heart failure using a Lexicon linked to SNOMED CT in the problem list. But when the HIM coding professional tries to code the patient’s diagnosis, she sees in SNOMWED-CT concept mapped to ICD-10-CM. The coder could now accept, reject, or modify the code list to be used for reimbursement purposes.
