Jumpstart the ICD-10 Transition with the CMS's Roadto10.org

The Center's for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS) has created a new tool to help small medical practices transition to ICD-10. Called ROAD TO 10, the new tool offers general information on ICD-10, specialty references and information, and an action plan building tool.

The Road to 10's ORTHOPEDICS REFERENCES section provides common orthopaedic codes, a primer for clinical documentation, clinical scenarios, and training and education resources.

If you have yet to start planning for your ICD-10 transition or you're looking for additional resources and support, visit Road to 10. You can also find additional ICD-10 resources on the CMS'S ICD-10 WEBPAGE.
