My billing form will not associate a problem to a procedure using Mel_Add_order unless the problem has both an ICD9 and an ICD10 code.
Has anyone else experienced this problem since loading the new ICD-10 codes in October?
We have run into an issue where ICD-10 codes can't be added if they are on the list of codes that were recently discontinued. I haven't run into what you are describing yet. I'm curious, have you run a mel trace? If so, what error code did you get, if any?

I just tried on my form, adding a new ICD10 code (F32.89 - does not have an ICD9 code) and tied it to an E&M code using the MEL_ADD_ORDER and it worked fine. I would also start by looking at the error code in the MEL trace. If you are not very familiar with the MEL trace you can also wrap the MEL_ADD_ORDER in a userok() function to get the error code.
I haven'trun into that issue either. Would be interested in seeing your MEL.
