Is your organization still dragging its feet on ICD-10 planning and implementation? Fear not. Help is only a click away. Healthcare Information and Management Systems (HIMSS) and the American Health Information Management Association (AHIMA) have jointly developed and released “ICD-10 Critical Pathway for Getting Started – 2012 and Beyond,” a free, online tool that details the steps that healthcare providers must follow in the next 20 months (February 2012 to October 2013) to meet the ICD-10 coding conversion compliance deadline of October 1, 2013. Follow the timeline in the critical path tool, and you should be good to go.
