CMS 2004 ICD9's Need To Be Installed

For all our health care Clients: The 2004 CMS ICD9 updates have been released. These updates must be installed by October 1st, but should not be installed too long before then. Medicare requires that Final Claims contain the ICD codes of the RAPs. Any RAPs submitted on or after 10/1 must use the new codes.

We have the latest ICD9 files for our Misys and McKesson Clients. For those clients that we have VPN access to, we will install the updates on the evening of September 30th. We will notify you before we perform the installation. Questions can be referred to me at the office or via e-mail.
