ICD-10 Implementation, Education and Training
|
On Oct. 1, 2013, the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services will require all healthcare providers to operate with ICD-10 coding. While this date may seem far away, the full implementation of ICD-10 is expected to take 18+ months for a typical organization. Kforce Healthcare provides a complete ICD-10 Implementation Solution from full project management and readiness assessments to developing a plan, providing education and post-implementation audits, education and support.
