WEBINAR - ICD-10 Documentation

April 26: ICD-10: Will Your Documentation Be Ready?
One of the largest problems following the October 1, 2013 implementation date for ICD-10 will be documentation insufficient to support the specificity required for the new ICD-10 code sets. A recent study evaluating over 3,000 medical records across the country revealed that on average only 37% of the current physician documentation would support the newer standards that are going to be required by ICD-10. We believe a behavioral change in documentation habits for most providers will be necessary—and now is the time to start preparing.
