Overview:

We will explore the new ICD-10 requirements, the important dates involved, the major difference between ICD-9 and ICD-10, go over a list of FAQ's, learn what is required of you and the people that you might do business with regarding healthcare providers, health plans, and healthcare clearinghouses. We will also take a look at the impact that ICD-10 could have on treatments, payment, and healthcare operations.

Why should you attend: Attendees will get an explanation of the new ICD-10 guidelines, find out what will be impacted, when these changes are going to happen, ask and answer some FAQ's, and talk about planning the implementation of ICD-10.
Fear: OMG, I am going to have to revamp my whole way of doing business. I don't do well with change, so I think ICD-10 is a bad idea. This may be your opinion, however, it's not going to be as bad as you think.
Uncertainty: I do not have the time nor the resources to get this done.
Doubt: Who, what, when, why and how will I accomplish this?
