ICD-10 Preparedness Education by BridgeFront

"Now is the time to begin educating your organization on ICD-10. Our Preparedness Education engages every employee in the organization in this monumental business process change," says Lorraine Schnelle, EVP of BridgeFront.

BridgeFront launches Phase One of its ICD curriculum roadmap, its ICD-10 Preparedness Education. This two-hour training prepares healthcare employees across the organization for the conversion to ICD-10, coming in October 2013.

Effective and engaging, the training focuses on the issues that are top-of-mind for healthcare executives and practices:

  • Maintaining coding accuracy and productivity
  • Retaining a stable accounts receivable position
  • Sustaining a viable cash flow

Courses are currently open for enrollment and recommended for physicians, clinicians, and non-clinical personnel. Employees can attend via any internet-connected computer or smartphone. To view a sample of BridgeFront's online education, click here.

Healthcare professionals need regular reminding of ICD-10, because it's difficult to see what's coming while focusing on the immediate needs of patients, says Stephen M. Stewart, CIO of Henry County Health Center, on the Hospital and Health Networks website.

Combining 70 years of healthcare education experience, BridgeFront and The Coding Institute created this new training available through BridgeFront's Online Education Center.

"Now is the time to begin educating your organization on ICD-10. Our Preparedness Education engages every employee in the organization in this monumental business process change," says Lorraine Schnelle, EVP of BridgeFront. "The education ensures your team is engaged in and aware of the many efforts needed to implement ICD-10, and the affect it will have on their daily workflow."

In 2012, BridgeFront’s education roadmap includes ICD-10-CM and ICD-10-PCS coding, clinical documentation improvement, and additional role-based business process outcomes.
