ICD-10 and HIPAA 5010 for the
Executive Suite: Are You Prepared?
WEB CAST
Thursday, January 20th | 12:00 –
1:00 p.m.
Hospitals and health care in Washington State are facing large changes
over the next several years due to the implementation of ICD 10
(International Statistical Classification of Diseases and Related
Health Problems 10th Revision) and HIPAA Version 5010. These
changes will have a major impact on information and billing
systems. While some health systems are well along in preparation,
others have only just begun to prepare. To make matters more
difficult, it is easy to miss some key components needed to smooth the
transition as these changes impact so many facets of day-to-day
operation.
Please join us for a web conference on Thursday, January 20th from
12:00 – 1:00 p.m. to discuss the following questions:
- What are the ramifications of both ICD-10 and 5010 which you must
plan on meeting? These include billing; coding/medical records;
information technology infrastructure; etc.
- How prepared are providers?
- What is HIPAA 5010 and why you need to be ready for it before you
can address ICD-10; and
- What resources are available to help meet these requirements?
Presenters include Jim
Cannon, Executive Director of WSHA’s Health Information Program
and representatives
(to be announced) from the Healthcare Financial Management
Association, the Healthcare Information Management Systems Society and
the Washington State Health Information Management Association.
Participation in the web conference is free. All hospital
employees are welcome to participate. All you need is a
computer with an Internet connection and a telephone. If you want the
slides in advance, they will be available on WSHA’s website the morning
of the web conference.
We
hope you can join us!
