Implementation Handbooks:
-
CMS has developed four Implementation Handbooks as additional resources to assist the health care industry with the transition from ICD-9 to ICD-10 codes. Each guide provides detailed information for planning and executing the ICD-10 transition process.
The handbooks are tailored specifically for:
- Small and medium provider practices,
- Large provider practices,
- Small hospitals, and
- Payers.
The appendix of each handbook references relevant templates, which have been created to help clarify staff roles, set internal deadlines/responsibilities, and assess vendor readiness. The templates are customizable and are also available for download in Excel and PDF formats from the CMS website.
Visit the "Latest News" section of the CMS Website, http://www.cms.gov/ICD10/02b_Latest_News.asp, to download the handbooks and the relevant templates.
