In the next few years, the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services will require healthcare providers to convert from ICD-9 to ICD-10 coding - a process that is expected to take 18+ months.

Through research and experience, Kforce Healthcare Solutions discovered some organizations may be unaware of the extensive impacts and risks that an ICD-9 to ICD-10 transition can have on healthcare facilities and operations.

Kforce can provide ICD-10 readiness assessments and training to help your facility prepare and plan for a successful ICD-10 implementation. Our assessments consider each facility’s operational, technology and financial circumstances.
