Title : The Impact of ICD-10 on Your Organization
Speaker : Rose Dunn

Webplay Recording Date : 11-19-2009
Webplay Price : $ 150 for two weeks viewing

Webinar Overview:

It has been estimated that the ICD-10 implementation will take 966 days. Thus, for your facility to meet the federally mandated compliance deadline of Oct. 1, 2013, work on ICD - 10 conversion should begin no later than January 2010.

Join Rose Dunn as she provides you a broad overview of how to effectively implement ICD - 10.

The "timeline shows graphically that your full time effort from now to October 2013 will be required to successfully meet the compliance deadline. You cannot delay this effort."

CMS has stated its expectation is that your facility meets the deadline, and no contingency period will be allowed. Based on the timeline, you should start your work now on an implementation strategy.
