AAHKS shares the concern of many health organizations regarding the readiness of all providers, payers, and other participants in the billing chain to implement ICD-10 on October 1, 2015.  We encourage you to contact your members of Congress to ask them to provide a grace period during implementation so that potential disruptions do not impact the delivery of care. There is an easy-to-use tool on the AAHKS website that connects you with your legislators and a letter template that you can send or personalize. Take action now.
