By Andrea Steffes-Tuttle



New survey results illustrate the lack of ICD-10 preparedness.



This month, the Healthcare Billing and Management Association (HBMA) surveyed industry members to investigate progress towards ICD-10 readiness.  



Highlights of the survey findings are:



Respondents have an increased confidence in their ability to handle both ICD-9 and ICD-10 concurrently.

23 percent of respondents report that system updates aren’t complete and it appears that internal testing is still lagging.

Only 27 percent report successful end-to-end testing.

83 percent expect that end-to-end testing won’t be available until sometime in 2015.
