3M is your ICD-10 partner
The regulation and the date have been proposed: HHS has recommended ICD-10 code sets replace ICD-9-CM code sets effective Oct. 1, 2011.
Given the potential financial and clinical impact of the new classification system—not to mention changes to information systems—healthcare organizations should take steps now to understand and prepare for the change. Fortunately, hospitals do not have to face the transition alone.
Four sessions at AHIMA 2008 offer timely information about ICD-10. And all benefit from the expertise of Rhonda Butler, clinical research analyst from 3M Health Information Systems.
Trust 3M to provide the tools and information that can help prepare you for this major transition.
