Canada is among those countries that use it only in hospitals.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Charting and Documentation for ICD-10 is a huge concern with laterality being introduced hence Medical coders and physicians in this case can assess the new codes and the current existing charts to see if their current documentation supports the more in-depth requirements of ICD-10 and start preparing for this change.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><em><span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\">Training:<\/span><\/em> Besides the Medical coding &amp; billing staff but also the physicians need to be trained and educated. However care needs to be taken that training begins not more than six to nine months before the new codes are used as they will likely be forgotten by the time they are needed.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\"><strong><em>Physician concerns: <\/em><\/strong><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Implementation is likely to be very costly and a <span style=\"text-decoration: underline;\">big financial concern<\/span> amongst practices and a typical small practice of three physicians can expect costs of more than $83,000 by the time the changeover is complete, while a practice of 10 providers may spend as much as $285,000 to fully implement ICD-10. Besides these costs computers, software and staff training is a major financial concern during the transition to ICD-10. Payments flow is also a major concern post implementation as payments are not entirely in the practice\u2019s control. Moreover every part of the practice will have to be assessed in tandem with ICD-10 along with assessment of vendors.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: justify;\">Practices need to start gathering enough information on ICD-10 and Billers and Coders proficient in ICD-10 transition are the need of the hour and highly demanded.
