ICD-10: Industry perceptions and readiness

January 14th, 2010

A new study looks at how health organizations are responding to the ICD-10 deadline of Oct. 1, 2013. In many cases, they don’t seem to be responding at all—70% indicated their organization has done  “little or nothing” to implement the new standard.

You can read the study here.

Tick tock

November 9th, 2009

October 1, 2013, sounds like a long way off—unless you are in health IT.

That’s the day that the U.S. Dept. of Health and Human Services (HHS) has set as the deadline for conversion to ICD-10 clinical codes.

Two new Milliman white papers help clarify the issue by looking at critical factors for conversion and by isolating the characteristics that will separate the winners from the losers as the American healthcare system makes this switch.

Anyone looking for even more depth can check back with us for future publications, or join our series of Webinars, which begin tomorrow.
