On February 16 HHS announced their intent to delay the ICD-10 compliance date, although they have yet to specify an exact date.  The original date was already pushed back to October 1, 2013.  The news came as a bit of a shock to many in the healthcare industry as most agree (64 percent in a poll from Edifecs) that postponing the date will not lead to better readiness. There has been much debate on the benefits of implementing ICD-10.  While some are staunch advocates of using the more comprehensive classification, others like the AMA are very much opposed.  The AMA even wrote an open letter to the House of Representatives urging a stop to ICD-10 all together.  In fact, Nuesoft [cont...]

Doctors decide to practice medicine for various reasons; maybe they experienced something as a child or they really just want to help people. But another major reason physicians practice medicine to earn a living and participate in, what is hopefully, a money-making business. The education of running a business, however, is not something taught in medical school. Any doctor about to start a practice, or join one, needs to have a basic knowledge in contracts, insurance and making money.
