Expand Your Health Insurance IT Knowledge
New Online Course:
ICD-10 and the 5010 Mandate - A Technology View

By October 1, 2014, health plans and providers are required to comply with the use of ICD-10 code sets used in reporting health care diagnoses and procedures. With this compliancy, along with implementation of the HIPAA 5010 mandate, the portability of health care coverage should become simpler and easier to transport across our health care system. These changes will create a significant impact on most health plan and provider processes and IT systems.

Learn More with AHIP’s New Course

If your job requires an understanding of the HIPAA 5010 mandate and ICD-10 code sets, our new online, mobile-friendly course, ICD-10 and 5010 Mandate – A Technology View, can provide you with the knowledge you need in an easy-to-follow interactive format. Plus, it's mobile! You can study from your smartphone, tablet, or any other mobile device you choose.

Coming Soon: Two New IT Professional Designations

Two new professional designations are being created for IT professionals in the health insurance industry. Passing ICD-10 and 5010 Mandate – A Technology View earns you credit towards both designations.

 

Information Technology Professional (ITP) designation

Earn the ITP designation by taking three IT online courses, including ICD-10 and 5010 Mandate – A Technology View. The other two courses will be launched within the next few months.

 

Information Technology Fellow (ITF) designation

A more advanced title, you earn the ITF designation by passing three IT courses, plus participating in IT-focused events and social learning.

Details about the IT professional designations and two additional IT courses will be available soon on our website. For information about four IT webinars planned for this year, check back with us after February 1, 2013 at www.ahip.org/courses. Meanwhile, if you have questions, contact us at Support@AHIPInsuranceEducation.org or 800.509.4422.

No More Semesters!

If you are familiar with AHIP courses, you know that we offered most courses within a semester schedule. Beginning this year, AHIP’s courses are no longer connected to semester dates. The majority of courses allow 90 calendar days from the day you enroll and pay for a course to complete your studies and take the exam. This provides you with added flexibility to study on your own time and at your own pace. A few exceptions are noted in the catalog.
