Reforms/ RegulationsThe IT initiatives of healthcare providers must transcend the 'meaningful use' of electronic health records for sustainable financial performance.
Payors and providers can take informed decisions on ICD-10-based contracts with simulation tools that model payments and reimbursements across granular procedure codes.
The back-end systems of payors and providers must support ICD-10 transactions to enable better disease management, and improve actuarial services and benefits planning.
Healthcare providers can improve the quality of care and increase revenue with enhanced accuracy of ICD-10 codes and better physician productivity.
Healthcare organizations can develop effective ICD-10 crosswalks by involving partners in its development and arriving at a consensus on translated code values before implementation.
Healthcare organizations can ensure a smooth transition to HIPAA 5010 by automating processes, and evaluating the benefits of their approach after each phase.
A business transformation approach that transcends HIPAA 5010 and ICD-10 compliance will help healthcare organizations enhance performance with streamlined processes and systems.
Cloud computing and information services can improve healthcare, modernize processes and reduce costs.
