In 2008 the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services hosted a series of national provider calls that provided an overview of ICD-10 and how it differs from ICD-9-CM. The discussion included: - The major impacts providers should consider when planning to update any systems with ICD-10 codes.
- The differences in code length, alpha-numeric characters, and increased details captured by the codes.
- An overview that helps providers, payers, vendors, and the publishing community in thinking about future reporting, system updates, and training.
