04/12/2010 - 2010 ICD-10 Summit: A Strategic Approach to Challenges and Opportunities

Mon, 12 Apr 2010 08:00:00 -0600

The Second Annual AHIMA ICD-10 Summit is dedicated to the exploration of the challenges and opportunities of the transition to the ICD-10-CM/PCS coding systems and the 5010 HIPAA transaction. The Summit gathers thought leaders from all segments of the healthcare industry to meet this challenge, because all segments are affected by this transition. The industry at large is strengthened through transparency in the exchange of information between every community. A well-planned, well-managed process—including thorough risk assessment, implementation planning, and detailed go-live preparations—can yield a smooth, successful transition. Furthermore, the transition to ICD-10-CM/PCS should be a means of gaining strategic advantage, rather than simply achieving compliance. The 2010 ICD-10 Summit features information, resources, and networking opportunities participants need to effectively plan and manage the transition process and gain that strategic advantage. 'Mapping as potentially THE issue with the conversion was eye opening.' 'Gained knowledge about aspects that I have not had to be involved with before - 5010, mapping, etc. Very helpful - came home with a broader understanding and new terminology.' 'All the presentations and information shared was valuable and applicable.' 'The ICD 10 risk assessment template to evaluate where the challenges in my organization was insightful.'
