Career Step to Be Featured in April 2 ICD10monitor Webinar on Preparing Clinics and Physician Practices for the ICD-10 Transition

    PROVO, UT, March 27, 2015 /24-7PressRelease/ -- Career Step, an online provider of career-focused education and corporate training, is pleased to announce that Career Step Executive Vice President Mike Hodgson will be the featured speaker in a webinar hosted by ICD10monitor on Thursday, April 2 at 1 p.m. Eastern time. Mr. Hodgson will be speaking on the steps small clinics and physician practices should be taking right now to ensure they will be prepared for the ICD-10 transition, which is currently on track for the October 1, 2015, mandated implementation date.

"Even with less than a year left until the ICD-10 implementation, many smaller organizations are just beginning to plan their transition efforts," said Mr. Hodgson. "In our April 2 webinar, I will discuss the unique training needs of these organizations and what they should be focusing on and looking for to ensure the training and resources they invest in will truly meet those needs."

This webinar is intended for physicians, HIM directors, coding supervisors, coding consultants, coders and clinical documentation (CDI) specialists. It will be held on Thursday, April 2 at 1:00 p.m. Eastern time.

During the presentation, Mr. Hodgson will share the steps for ICD-10 success that clinics and physician practices should be focusing on within the limited time remaining before the mandated ICD-10 implementation date.

"Last year when the ICD-10 implementation was delayed, we saw virtually all physician practices and smaller clinics put their ICD-10 planning on hold," continued Mr. Hodgson. "We are now back to that point where there are only about six months left to prepare, and we are seeing an significant increase in the demand for ICD-10 training and resources, particularly those developed specifically for these types of organizations."
