ICD-11 Prep: Examining Prominent Changes in Preparation for the Transition
Show Notes

Healthcare providers nationwide are scanning the horizon for the first signs of ICD-11, which is slowly making its presence seen and felt.

However far in the future you might speculate the transition to ICD-11 to be, the reality is that preparation and planning will take time, and understanding the new concepts being introduced is a key starting point. And that will be where we start during the next live edition of Talk-Ten-Tuesdays; join Chuck Buck and Dr. Erica Remer when they welcome the return of Susan Gatehouse, founder and CEO of Axea Solutions, who will report the lead story.

The live broadcast will also feature these other segments:

  • Coding Report: Laurie Johnson, senior healthcare consultant with Revenue Cycle Solutions, LLC, will have the Talk Ten Tuesdays Coding Report, along with the broadcast’s weekly Listeners Survey.

  • News Desk: Timothy Powell, compliance expert and ICD10monitor national correspondent, will anchor the Talk Ten Tuesdays News Desk.

  • Mental Health Report: May is Mental Health Awareness Month, and here at Talk Ten Tuesdays, we continue to recognize the importance of this pressing national issue. Erin Head, senior healthcare consultant with Iron Mountain and coding auditor with Code and Comply Specialists, will join the broadcast to report on current challenges in behavioral health coding, focusing on telehealth coding best practices, plus key Inpatient Psychiatric Facility Prospective Payment System (IPF PPS) guidelines, and the importance of psych history codes, and provider documentation improvement.

  • TalkBack: Erica Remer, MD, founder and president of Erica Remer, MD, Inc. and Talk Ten Tuesdays co-host, will report on a subject that has caught her attention during her popular segment.
