PDMG, Inc. Announces ICD9CodeUp - The Service to Enable ICD-10 Billing Compliance and Prevent Financial Ruin
Webster, MA (PRWEB) August 19, 2015 -- Professional Data Management Group, Inc. (PDMG, Inc.) founder Dr. Ronald S. Jolda announced that PDMG, Inc. has developed a proprietary, cost-effective solution for medical providers and medical billers to become ICD-10 billing compliant by 10/01/2015. According to the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services, ICD-10 is a change in medical billing practices that affects everyone covered by the Healthcare Insurance Portability Accountability Act (HIPAA). The compliance date for ICD-10 is October 1, 2015.
According to Dr. Jolda, failure to implement the new ICD-10 codes by October 1, 2015 could cause significant cash flow problems for medical service providers such as physicians, physician’s assistants, nurse practitioners, psychologists, physical therapists, chiropractors, ambulance operators, dentists and any other providers who bill insurance for their services.
Dr. Jolda states, “PDMG, Inc. offers the cost effective solution to medical providers known as ICD9CodeUp which is a Software as a Service product that will allow medical providers/billers to continue using their existing ICD-9 billing systems and be able to submit claims using ICD-10 codes and receive payment.“
This solution can prevent medical providers from having to spend thousands of dollars in order to upgrade their existing billing systems and software to ICD-10 and could prevent financial ruin.
