THE ICD-10 CROSSWALK –
NOT A WALK IN THE PARK
What is Parakeet code in ICD-10?


We all have heard about the Parakeet code
in ICD-10, as also a person walking into a
lamppost code.

But jokes apart, is your clinic really ready
for the Oct 1, 2014 deadline
Is your medical billing team ready to
speak the lingo of ICD-10?

Medicare may not even touch your claims
with a barge pole if they are not coded in
ICD-10.

So, if it looks like you may not cross the
finishing line, as far as ICD-10 is concerned,
by Oct 1, 2014, do what the majority of your
colleagues have done successfully;
Don’t be side-tracked by any geek squad
who promise the world to you in terms of
cross walking solutions;

remember that ultimately it is your head
under the guillotine.
