A little ICD-10 humor, especially for outpatient nurses

I don't always get sucked into a jet engine ... But when I do, I use ICD-10 code: V97.33XD.

hAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAHAHAHHAHAH i love it. The whole ICD-10 thing is giving me migraines. I know I cannot be alone. ICD-9 sucked, but this sucks and blows, both.

Tomorrow I'm printing this out and posting it on the wall in our provider workroom.

IMA do that too Klone. Thanks, in advance, for the laughs, on the part of the technicians, medical coders, charge nurses, and outpatient nurses who are battling through the whole ICD-10 funfest. I know we are lovin' it in dialysis.

ICD 10 codes are giving me a migraine and it's from a patient perspective. No fun there either.

Ok I wish I would have seen this yesterday! I have to admit it was not nearly as bad as we all thought it was going to be. These are great.
