President Obama signed the so-called \u2018doc fix\u2019 bill, Protecting Access to Medicare Act of 2014 into law on April 1, 2014.<\/a>\u00a0\u00a0Included in this bill was a last minute provision that delayed the implementation of ICD-10 from 10\/1\/2014 to at least 10\/1\/15. Reactions from both sides of the ICD-10 debate have been mixed:<\/p>\n

“We are extremely disappointed by today\u2019s vote. We understand the considerable hours, resources, and money CHIME members and their organizations have spent preparing for the transition. This pause in momentum discredits the significant work our industry has spent training staff, conducting testing, and converting systems; not to mention the hold on improving care quality and accuracy, advancing clinical reporting and research, and patient safety outcomes.” \u00a0–\u00a0Russell P. Branzell, FCHIME, CHCIO, President and CEO<\/a><\/p>\n

“Implementation of the ICD-10 code set will be delayed at least one year, based on a provision in a federal law signed Tuesday that will prevent the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services from implementing the new code set before Oct. 1, 2015.The delay gives physicians a much-needed extra year to prepare for implementation of the costly code set, which is developed by the World Health Organization and adapted for U.S. use by the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention and the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services.” –\u00a0American Medical Association<\/a><\/p>\n

“On behalf of our more than 72,000 members who have prepared for ICD-10 in good faith,\u00a0<\/em>AHIMAwill seek immediate clarification on a number of technical issues such as the exact\u00a0length of the delay<\/em>, said AHIMA CEO Lynne Thomas Gordon, MBA, RHIA, CAE, FACHE,\u00a0FAHIMA.\u00a0Since the transition to ICD-10 remains inevitable and time-sensitive because of the potential risk\u00a0to public health and the need to track, identify and analyze new clinical services and treatments\u00a0available for patients, AHIMA will continue to help lend technical assistance and training to\u00a0stakeholders as they are forced to navigate the challenge of continuing to prepare for ICD-10\u00a0while still using ICD-9.” –American Health Information Management Association<\/a><\/p><\/blockquote>\n
