I hate to say I told you so...
It's official: the Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) has announced
it will delay implementation of the ICD-10 diagnostic code set beyond Oct. 1,
2013. But today's announcement did not specify for how long ICD-10's starting
date would be postponed.
The statement said that HHS would "initiate a process to postpone the date by
which certain health care entities have to comply with [ICD-10]." That seems to
refer to a rulemaking process that includes solicitation of public comments and
leads to a final rule.
Industry analysts speculated that the deadline might be put off for a year or
two, according to Healthcare IT News.
