Thoughts from the NEHIMA & Long Term Care Annual AHIMA Conference

I don’t know about you, but I learned so much at the New England AHIMA and Long Term Care conference this week at Mohegan Sun in Connecticut!  As a solution specialist, I am always mindful of the ways that compliance, coding and reimbursement professionals are inundated with an overwhelming set of challenges.  Having time at smaller shows like this gives me a great opportunity to hear from MediRegs Coding Suite and ComplyTrack clients who tell us regularly how our tools help, and I’d like to share some of this with you. 

For HIM professionals, the Coding Suite consolidates and organizes complicated information into a single on-line source, boosting compliance and saving time. The Coding Suite includes electronic codebooks and Local Coverage Determinations; payment calculators for APC, RVU and MS-DRG payment; lookup tools for CPT®, HCPCS, ICD-9, ICD-10 and NCCI Code Pair Checking; along with guidance from Medicare, Medicaid, AMA, AHA and more!  To learn more about the coding suite, watch our video demonstration.

For LTC & Elder Care professionals, our Audit & Revenue Resource Center offers a single stop for provider-specific LTCH and SNF calculators; diagnosis coding tools; virtual research assistance with topics specific to the SNF, LTC, and HH PPS systems; and regulatory and compliance resources that include both state and federal information.

For all professionals dealing with the transition to ICD-10, each of our Coding Suite and Compliance Suite products include at no additional cost to the customer electronic ICD-10-CM and ICD-10-PCS codebooks that offer significant value over paper; an ICD-10 Explorer tool that allows you to natively code in I-9, I-10 and cross reference the GEMs and Reimbursement maps for validation; and an MS-DRG grouper & calculator to anticipate and understand the impact of MS-DRG payment shift. We invite you to attend our FREE ICD-10 Webinar Series.
