New ICD-10 and version 5010 resources from CMS

CMS has posted new educational materials about the conversion to ICD-10 and version 5010 online.

The materials were developed for a “Code-a-thon” that was jointly sponsored by CMS and the American Academy of Professional Coders in April. The new materials can be found in the Latest News section of the website.

Additional information about what the new ICD-10 coding system and the accompanying version 5010 electronic standards will mean for physician practices is also available from ACP.
