Team,

Just curious to know - Is it still ICD10 migration valid? Since SNOMED CT is being mandated to capture the medical problems, will ICD migrations get slow down? will that still exists?

Thanks
Devi

The HIT Standards Committee endorsed recommendations to call for SNOMED
CT for physician’s clinical observations by 2015. In 2010, providers must
use ICD-9 or SNOMED CT to qualify, and in 2013 they must use ICD-10 or
SNOMED CT.

So … ICD-10 will need to be supported for a while yet.
