Ensure a Smooth Version 5010 Upgrade: Use CMS’ Online Resources
0 Comments
The Version 5010 upgrade deadline was January 1, 2012. However, the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS) initiated an enforcement discretion period to give everyone covered by HIPAA additional time to complete testing and meet compliance. You should be finalizing your upgrade to Version 5010 if you have not yet done so.
CMS is committed to helping you successfully upgrade to Version 5010 by providing resources on the CMS ICD-10 website to understand and manage your upgrade. Take a look at the Version 5010 section of the CMS ICD-10 website to find out more about the upgrade and see the available resources.
CMS has also created several helpful fact sheets on Version 5010, which include:
- Version 5010, D.0 and 3.0 Basics, a fact sheet providing an overview of Version 5010, D.0, and 3.0.
- FAQS: Versions 5010 and D.0 Basics, which lists many frequently asked questions about the Version 5010 upgrade.
- Version 5010 Testing Readiness Fact Sheet, explaining the Version 5010 upgrade and necessary Phase I Internal and Phase II External testing.
