New Online ICD-10 Implementation Guide

The third annual National Health IT Week is September 16-20. CMS will mark the week by hosting several webinars and launching new eHealth tools and resources that help providers participate in eHealth programs.

To help the health care industry prepare for ICD-10, CMS has developed an online ICD-10 implementation guide. This web-based tool, released as part of Health IT Week, includes a basic overview of ICD-10 as well as step-by-step guidance on how to transition to ICD-10 for small/medium practices, large practices, small hospitals, and payers. Users can easily navigate to information that is most relevant to them—wherever they are in the implementation process. The online guide also includes links to CMS ICD-10 resources and other tools to help with the ICD-10 transition.
