April 1, 2014, the President signed into law legislation passed by the House and Senate delaying ICD-10 until at least October 1, 2015. As a result, and with more questions than answers, organizations have been compelled to reassess their timelines and budgets in order to comply with the date change.
Speaking before the Georgia Pediatric Practice Managers Association, PYA Consultant and ICD-10-CM Trainer Kim-Marie Walker addressed some of these recent developments along with basic guidance for the transition, including:
- Comparison of ICD-9 and ICD-10
- ICD-10 organizational and structural differences
- Vendor recommendations and available resources
- Transition planning and roles
