There is no doubt that ICD-10-CM will begin on October 1, 2015, changing all diagnostic coding for all specialties including urology. There also will be no grace period for learning the new system where both the ICD-9 and ICD-10 sets will co-exist together at the same time. Urologists and their coders and billers as well as most of their office staff need to be familiar with the new codes and should be able to use and implement them according to their inclusion in ICD-10 set.
This webinar by expert speaker Michael A. Ferragamo MD, FACS will provide attendees with all the recent and final information and knowledge they will need to easily incorporate ICD-10 into their systems and practices painlessly and completely.

The session will also look into the new ICD-10 system of coding and provide tips on how you can properly use ICD-10 in your everyday practice.
