The ICD-10 conversion date is approaching…are you ready for October?
Who is affected? ICD-10 will affect diagnosis and inpatient procedure coding for everyone covered by the Health Insurance Portability Accountability Act (HIPAA), not just those who submit Medicare or Medicaid claims.
Replacing the outdated ICD-9 coding system is daunting, but necessary. Don't miss this featured session on May 2 to find out if you are ready.
Documentation and ICD-10 Implementation* Paul L. Weygandt, MD, JD, MPH, MBA, CCS, CPE, FACPE , Vice President Physician Services, J. A. Thomas & Associates, Nuance Clinical Documentation Solutions Division
Dr. Paul L. Weygandt is Vice President Physician Services, J. A. Thomas & Associates (JATA now part of Nuance).

Dr. Weygandt is a certified coder and an AHIMA-approved ICD-10-CM/PCS Trainer.
Don't miss this informative session that will:
Employ strategies to engage physicians in a collaborative manner with clinical documentation improvement initiatives to improve quality of care, quality metrics and financial sustainability.
Identify innovative and at times challenging ways to improve quality metrics through improved severity capture, focusing on the process of physician documentation.
Engage physicians in the transition to ICD-10, enabling IT tools such as CAC while limiting physician, CDS, and coder rework.
