Advancing Care Access and Transformation Through Z Codes
a webinar presented by
the North Carolina Healthcare Foundation
Z codes are a set of ICD-10-CM codes used to report social, economic, and environmental determinants known to affect health and health-related outcomes. Nine broad categories of Z codes represent various hazardous socioeconomic, and environmental conditions. Z codes can be used in any health setting and by any provider.
Join us for an engaging webinar that explores the critical role of Z codes in enhancing performance improvement initiatives and improving access to care. This session will define Z codes and offer insights on how their integration into the documentation of non-medical drivers of health can inform opportunities for performance and quality improvement.
Participants will gain a deeper understanding of how data on non-medical drivers of health can enhance healthcare delivery by identifying patient needs, informing interventions, and improving outcomes. Additionally, the webinar will outline CMS and regulatory requirements related to non-medical drivers of health, ensuring healthcare organizations are aligned with evolving compliance and reporting standards.
