Navigating the Coding Landscape: Medical Coders' Perspectives on the Transition to the 11th Revision of ICD Based on Past Experience
This study aims to provide a comprehensive understanding of the experiences and perspectives of one set of medical coders who went through the earlier transition to ICD-10. The expected conclusions will present the key challenges and barriers faced by this group of coders in relation to the education and training processes that were received ahead of and during the transition period from ICD-9 to ICD-10. The study will show the educational strategies, training methods, and best practices that this group of experienced coders found to be successful. This study will result in recommendations from the coders on how to improve and streamline the education and training processes for when the time comes for the United States to transition to ICD-11.
