  1. What your EMR Vendor Should Provide in the ICD10 Transition Julie Lundberg March 27, 2014

  2. Pressures Applied From Multiple Directions “As an independent physician, Dr. Ragland must carefully devise strategies to keep her three-person practice afloat amid rising overhead, flat or dropping reimbursement rates, and new federal rules, many of them related to the health care law.” “If you don’t code properly, you don’t get paid.” Small practices: up to $83,290 (2008), now up to $226,105 Medium practices: up to $285,195 (2008), now up to $824,735 “Some physicians may end up paying nearly three times more for ICD-10 implementation than had been predicted just five years ago, according to a new report from the American Medical Association.”
