It is a crucial time for organizations as the required ICD-10 implementation date draws near. More than ever, communication and careful planning are key factors to a successful transition.  This year’s ICD-10 Symposium will feature industry experts who will address critical topics such as collaboration, managing competing priorities, testing and overall impact of the transition.

After attending this program, attendees will:

• Identify strategies to encourage collaboration both within a single hospital and across multiple healthcare stakeholders
• Describe approaches to address competing priorities to ensure that all obligations are met
• Discuss how organizations are testing their systems, processes and people to ensure a successful transition
• Explain the impact of the transition on the overall health care and public health sectors
