ICD-10 Implementation for Physicians WhitepaperMarie Bunch
Many providers are operating with blinders on, completely unaware of the magnitude of the conversion and potential train wreck ahead for their reimbursement. Support your physicians through the difficult change ahead by helping them take the right steps forward to make their transition as efficient and painless as possible.
Regardless of the size of the practice, training for any implementation – especially for one as complex and far reaching as ICD-10 – can be costly and difficult to deliver. With only a year remaining to complete the transition, providers and their staff must step up to planning, training, software/system upgrades/replacements, as well as other necessary investments. ICD-10 will require a significant education investment in order to ensure accurate coding and minimize productivity loss. While large organizations may have the resources to purchase training materials or send staff to training sessions, smaller organizations may have to depend on special societies or share resources to provide the needed training.

India Clinical Trials Market: Industry Size and Growth Trends [2030] Analyzed...Kumar Satyam
According to TechSci Research report, "India Clinical Trials Market- By Region, Competition, Forecast & Opportunities, 2030F," the India Clinical Trials Market was valued at USD 2.05 billion in 2024 and is projected to grow at a compound annual growth rate (CAGR) of 8.64% through 2030. The market is driven by a variety of factors, making India an attractive destination for pharmaceutical companies and researchers. India's vast and diverse patient population, cost-effective operational environment, and a large pool of skilled medical professionals contribute significantly to the market's growth. Additionally, increasing government support in streamlining regulations and the growing prevalence of lifestyle diseases further propel the clinical trials market.
Growing Prevalence of Lifestyle Diseases
The rising incidence of lifestyle diseases such as diabetes, cardiovascular diseases, and cancer is a major trend driving the clinical trials market in India. These conditions necessitate the development and testing of new treatment methods, creating a robust demand for clinical trials. The increasing burden of these diseases highlights the need for innovative therapies and underscores the importance of India as a key player in global clinical research.
Medical Technology Tackles New Health Care Demand - Research Report - March 2...pchutichetpong
M Capital Group (“MCG”) predicts that with, against, despite, and even without the global pandemic, the medical technology (MedTech) industry shows signs of continuous healthy growth, driven by smaller, faster, and cheaper devices, growing demand for home-based applications, technological innovation, strategic acquisitions, investments, and SPAC listings. MCG predicts that this should reflects itself in annual growth of over 6%, well beyond 2028.
According to Chris Mouchabhani, Managing Partner at M Capital Group, “Despite all economic scenarios that one may consider, beyond overall economic shocks, medical technology should remain one of the most promising and robust sectors over the short to medium term and well beyond 2028.”
There is a movement towards home-based care for the elderly, next generation scanning and MRI devices, wearable technology, artificial intelligence incorporation, and online connectivity. Experts also see a focus on predictive, preventive, personalized, participatory, and precision medicine, with rising levels of integration of home care and technological innovation.
The average cost of treatment has been rising across the board, creating additional financial burdens to governments, healthcare providers and insurance companies. According to MCG, cost-per-inpatient-stay in the United States alone rose on average annually by over 13% between 2014 to 2021, leading MedTech to focus research efforts on optimized medical equipment at lower price points, whilst emphasizing portability and ease of use. Namely, 46% of the 1,008 medical technology companies in the 2021 MedTech Innovator (“MTI”) database are focusing on prevention, wellness, detection, or diagnosis, signaling a clear push for preventive care to also tackle costs.
In addition, there has also been a lasting impact on consumer and medical demand for home care, supported by the pandemic. Lockdowns, closure of care facilities, and healthcare systems subjected to capacity pressure, accelerated demand away from traditional inpatient care. Now, outpatient care solutions are driving industry production, with nearly 70% of recent diagnostics start-up companies producing products in areas such as ambulatory clinics, at-home care, and self-administered diagnostics.
The dimensions of healthcare quality refer to various attributes or aspects that define the standard of healthcare services. These dimensions are used to evaluate, measure, and improve the quality of care provided to patients. A comprehensive understanding of these dimensions ensures that healthcare systems can address various aspects of patient care effectively and holistically. Dimensions of Healthcare Quality and Performance of care include the following; Appropriateness, Availability, Competence, Continuity, Effectiveness, Efficiency, Efficacy, Prevention, Respect and Care, Safety as well as Timeliness.
Antibiotic Stewardship by Anushri Srivastava.pptxAnushriSrivastav
Stewardship is the act of taking good care of something.
Antimicrobial stewardship is a coordinated program that promotes the appropriate use of antimicrobials (including antibiotics), improves patient outcomes, reduces microbial resistance, and decreases the spread of infections caused by multidrug-resistant organisms.
WHO launched the Global Antimicrobial Resistance and Use Surveillance System (GLASS) in 2015 to fill knowledge gaps and inform strategies at all levels.
ACCORDING TO apic.org,
Antimicrobial stewardship is a coordinated program that promotes the appropriate use of antimicrobials (including antibiotics), improves patient outcomes, reduces microbial resistance, and decreases the spread of infections caused by multidrug-resistant organisms.
ACCORDING TO pewtrusts.org,
Antibiotic stewardship refers to efforts in doctors’ offices, hospitals, long term care facilities, and other health care settings to ensure that antibiotics are used only when necessary and appropriate
According to WHO,
Antimicrobial stewardship is a systematic approach to educate and support health care professionals to follow evidence-based guidelines for prescribing and administering antimicrobials
In 1996, John McGowan and Dale Gerding first applied the term antimicrobial stewardship, where they suggested a causal association between antimicrobial agent use and resistance. They also focused on the urgency of large-scale controlled trials of antimicrobial-use regulation employing sophisticated epidemiologic methods, molecular typing, and precise resistance mechanism analysis.
Antimicrobial Stewardship(AMS) refers to the optimal selection, dosing, and duration of antimicrobial treatment resulting in the best clinical outcome with minimal side effects to the patients and minimal impact on subsequent resistance.
According to the 2019 report, in the US, more than 2.8 million antibiotic-resistant infections occur each year, and more than 35000 people die. In addition to this, it also mentioned that 223,900 cases of Clostridoides difficile occurred in 2017, of which 12800 people died. The report did not include viruses or parasites

There is now less than a year to prepare for the coding transition from ICD-9 to ICD-10.
What exactly does this mean and how does it affect you as a mental & behavioral health
care provider?
First, a quick primer: ICD codes are used for diagnosis—they support the CPT billing codes
that describe what action was taken. For example, the ICD-9 code for major depressive
disorder (MDD), recurrent episode is 296.3; and this diagnosis code would support a CPT
code of 90837, 60 minute psychotherapy session.
DSM are also diagnosis codes, and because most psychologists were trained to diagnose
using some form of DSM code, the 2 sets of diagnosis codes (DSM and ICD) have been
harmonized over the years. Often, they are even identical; for example, 296.3 is both
the ICD-9 and DSM-IV code for MDD (296.36 is MDD recurrent full remission; 296.35 is par-
tial remission, etc).
Often, when a psychologist uses DSM diagnosis codes, they are recognized by payers as ICD
-9 codes, and currently a mental health biller will automatically convert the psychologist’s
DSM diagnosis codes to ICD if they aren’t the same. The difference between DSM and ICD
is that ICD-9-CM codes have been mandated for third-party billing and reporting by HIPAA
for all electronic transactions for the past 10 years. While DSM has been the industry
standard for mental health, those codes aren’t technically acceptable for billing, and with
current updates to both DSM and ICD, the parallel & familiar coding situation is chang-
ing. (Click here for details about how DSM, ICD & CPT codes interact for mental health.)
In May 2013, the DSM-5 was released, causing significant changes to mental & behavioral
health diagnoses and generating huge political buzz. At the same time, a mandatory
change in ICD codes is taking place: by October 1st
, 2015, all healthcare providers
covered by HIPAA (including mental & behavioral health) must convert to using the ICD-
10-CM diagnosis code sets. The US is one of the last industrialized countries to make the
transition to ICD-10, even though it was published in 1990. The international adoption of
ICD-10-CM should facilitate data comparisons to track disease and treatment data; it may
also decrease the need for claim supporting documentation as it includes severity indicators
(and morbidity details) within each code.
Whereas previously DSM and ICD closely paralleled each other and were simple to
convert for billing, these revisions in both sets of codes mean that mental health billing
is getting ready to change significantly. First is the easier transition: making a decision
about whether or not to use DSM-5 and, if so, training your biller to convert it to ICD-9.
Some providers are choosing to stick with DSM-IV to diagnose their clients: there has been
a huge backlash against the DSM-5, and because billers are familiar with converting DSM-IV
to ICD-9, this method will remain in place for some providers until the ICD transition date. If
you choose to adopt DSM-5, your biller will need to learn how to convert these codes into
ICD-9 and of course use these codes in combination with the new mental health CPT codes
that were changed in January of 2013. (One important thing to note is that the change to
ICD-10 does not affect CPT coding for outpatient procedures and physician services).

877.334.8512, ext 1
Converting to DSM-5 lays potential groundwork for the future, as the CDC has stated that
they are working with the World Health Organization (WHO) to link the DSM-5 with the
mental and behavioral disorders section of the ICD-11. The proposed long term plan is that
DSM-5 and ICD-11 will parallel one another like DSM-IV and ICD-9 did for over a decade. In
the meantime, until these changes are in place, the gap between DSM and ICD is widening,
and some providers are ditching DSM altogether and diagnosing with ICD themselves: this
makes a lot of sense, since it saves a conversion step and makes billing easier. This method
of documenting client sessions for mental health will simplify the transition to ICD-10, which
is the second, and more complex, change.
Industry experts warn that this conversion will be massive, far greater than the update
to 5010 and more extensive in scope than any previous code updates. Essentially, the
number of codes is increasing dramatically: the current set of approximately 12,000 medical
diagnosis codes will expand to over 60,000, increasing the detail available in each code and
bringing the US in alignment with the current worldwide standard. While it appears to be a
valuable transition for healthcare, it certainly means a lot of work for those having to
implement the switch.
It’s easy in our already overloaded practices to put this necessary update on the backburner
until the October deadline, but it’s necessary to confront this task now. Researching and
implementing a plan of action is time consuming, but it’s essential. As of midnight on Oct.
1, 2015, any claims filed for dates of service on or after this date must contain ICD-10-CM
codes. Because this is a HIPAA mandate, penalties for failure to comply will be enforced.
Civil and criminal penalties may include heavy fines and imprisonment. Due to the scope of
changes, this isn’t something that can be ignored or addressed last minute.

A final note: what about ICD-11 that was mentioned!? Are we going to have to go
through this all over again in a few years? Hopefully not: WHO will be completing the prepa-
ration of ICD-11 at about the same time that the US will be adopting ICD-10, but through a
series of updates over the next few years, the US is expected to bring ICD-10 in line with ICD
-11. These updates are supposed to be smooth and gradual to avoid another sudden and
major change in diagnosis classification.
