Q: Where can I find CMS guidelines in written form?

A: On CMS.gov, click on the Medicare link and you will find a link for both local and national coverage determinations.

Q: When can I start finding ICD-10 codes within your software and submitting them?

A: Our software already has all the ICD-10 codes listed; we are building the crosswalk now. We recently completed ICD-10 testing with Medicare, and were successful with our front-end edits. We are looking to have this available to practices by June, to really start testing and crosswalking. At this point, payers are not accepting claims in ICD-10; they are not coming over until October 1, but we are testing with payers and clearinghouses directly.

    Just because the changeover for ICD-10 has been pushed back until October 2015, that doesn’t mean practices should slack off in preparing for it.
