ICD-10 Transition

Tick tock.  It’s time to start the countdown to October 2013, the deadline for the new ICD-10 implementation.  It may seem a long way off; however, it will be here before you know it.  This transition is not just a mere software update; it is a complete transition from ICD-9 to ICD10 and from 4010 to the new 5010 affecting not only coding, but also billing and payments.  Those organizations who properly prepare will move beyond compliance to competitive.
