AZCOMP Offers ICD-10 Update Support

(Newswire.net — July 16, 2015) Gilbert, Arizona — The Protecting Access to Medicare Act of 2014 raised serious concerns within the healthcare industry about the monumental changes the new law requires in coding used by medical practices. The transition from the current coding system to a new, more complex system comes at a time when medical professionals are already in the process of meeting technology mandates imposed by the federal government.

The October 1, 2015 deadline for compliance with Department of Health and Human Services ICD 10 implementation requirements is fast approaching. AZCOMP Technologies is offering medical professionals and medical practice managers ICD 10 training and support to assist them in making the transition from ICD-9 to ICD-10.
