The recent ICD-10 Industry Readiness Survey by the Workgroup for Electronic Data Interchange (WEDI) confirms what I have suspected and have been experiencing in the field – the delay of the ICD-10 rollout has bred procrastination, especially among providers.



Two thirds of the 324 providers who responded to the survey slowed their efforts or halted them completely when ICD-10 implementation was delayed last April. Payers have done somewhat better. Anecdotally, I’ve heard that when the delay was announced, precious resources for ICD-10 readiness were diverted to other initiatives by both providers and payers.
