Sessions on End-to-End Testing for May


National Government Services (NGS), under contract to CMS, is hosting a series of webinars to gather insights and feedback from the health care industry on end-to-end testing of ICD-10 and other HIPAA administrative simplification requirements.

NGS has posted draft checklists to the End-to-End Testing section of the CMS website for discussion during upcoming webinars. The checklists focus on testing for:
  • Payers 
  • Large practices 
  • Small practices 
  • Vendor to provider testing 
  • Vendor to payer testing 

NGS and CMS will further refine these draft checklists based on industry feedback.
