We walk through the newest coding guideline and ICD-10 updates that are driving real questions from coders and CDI teams right now. We connect the rule changes to clinical context so you can spot documentation gaps early and code with confidence. 
• sepsis guideline title change and why antibiotic resistance keeps surfacing in reviews 
• drivers of antimicrobial resistance and common clinical risk factors to capture 
• hypertension with heart disease guideline updates and when additional codes apply 
• sequencing considerations for hypertensive urgency, emergency, and crisis 
• new technology updates including lattice stents, newer defibrillator leads, Fontan scaffold advances, obstetrical dilators, and emerging therapies 
• CAR T therapy documentation watchouts and differentiating CRS from SIRS during reviews
