Electronic Claims Processing: Prepare Your Practice Now for ICD-10

The switch to ICD-10 is happening on October 1, 2015 - a deadline that will be here faster than you know it. This transition has caused a lot of practices to panic, but it doesn't have to! A little preparation goes a long way and we want to help get your practice on the right track. If you're a VisionWeb insurance customer we want you to know that we are already equipped to accept electronic claims that contain ICD-10 data. We just need your help to make sure that we're receiving the appropriate file formats from your system so that we can do a few mapping steps on our end. Once we take care of that we will be able to ensure that everything is passing through correctly.

The reason we want you taking these steps now is that we have to complete the mapping with the clearinghouse, and that is currently taking anywhere from a day to a week to complete. But, we anticipate that the closer we get to the deadline, that timeline is going to increase as more and more practices try and get ready. So our advice to you is get this step out of the way now!
