Since April 2015, three proposed bills have been submitted regarding some facet of the current ICD-10 transition. What are the odds of a bill to simply eliminate ICD-10 passing? Or legislation requiring HHS to conduct “comprehensive, end-to-end testing to assess whether Medicare claims based on the ICD-10 standard is fully functioning? In addition, we have heard chatter that a bill creating a two-year grace period for providers is gaining steam. Sources on Capitol Hill are confirming that, currently, there is no motivation to move any ICD-10 legislation before implementation takes place on October 1st. With less than four months to the ICD-10 deadline, we suggest that you avoid gambling with your clinic’s revenue or betting that Congress will soon step in before October. Take advantage of the precious little time left to ready your clinic for ICD-10 coding.
