Larger organizations are more prepared than smaller ones for the ICD-10 end-to-end testing.



A recent AHIMA/eHealth Initiative survey found a higher number of healthcare executives recognize the long-term benefits of using ICD-10 compared to last year and have plans to utilize the code set for quality improvement and performance measurement after implementation.



The survey queried 454 healthcare representatives from hospitals and physicians practices, examining readiness for testing and implementation, anticipated financial, clinical, and operational impact, as well as the strategic implications of an expanded code set.
