ICD 10 delay?
I'm curious, Our director e-mailed us last week and said ICD-10 implementation is postponed for 3 years. We haven't gotten any information in any of our subspription confirming a 3 year postonement. We checked with a coding manager and she said last she heard it was postponed for 1 year.
Anyone know?
