ICD-10 implementation is
scheduled for October 1, 2015 — Make sure your team is prepared
whether the target date is delayed again or not.

While a February GAO report
indicates that CMS is prepared for an October 1st transition,
a bill recently introduced in the House of Representatives
would create an 18-month transition period, along with
provisions that require transparent testing be done by CMS to
certify that ICD-10 processing is fully functioning.
