ICD-10-CM Transition: Prepare for Cash-Flow Impact.
DALLAS (August 18, 2015) , an industry leader in home health management software — also accredited by the American Nursing Credentialing Center has released a to help home health agencies effectively manage the transition to the ICD-10 medical code set, which is effective October 1, 2015.
The transition from ICD-9 to ICD-10 will affect every part of an agency’s practice, from software upgrades, to patient referrals, to clinical documentation and billing. According to research by the American Health Information Management Association, providers should expect a decrease in productivity of claims processing by as much as 69 percent during the first year of implementation.
“Minimizing the business impact of this change requires advance planning,” said John Olajide, President and CEO of Axxess. “Agencies that proactively train their staff and ensure their software is ready will have less impact to their productivity and, ultimately, their cash-flow.”
