ICD-10 has thrown some of our competitors clients in a tizzy

October 9, 2015: Dallas, TX

Yesterday, I received a phone call/report from a key friend/business ally in Florida who owns a Billing Company, describing how distraught many of his billing clients are due to how their claims are being rejected by CMS since the conversion of the healthcare billing and coding to the October 1st conversion from ICD-9 to ICD-10.
For those who are not involved in Healthcare, ICD-10 refers to the International Classification of Diseases diagnostics codes which specifies which code needs to be used for the patient's diagnostics.The US converted to ICD-10 on Oct. 1, 2015, after it was approved by the World Health Organization in 1992.The rest of the world has been using ICD-10 since the mid 1990's.
( yes, we in the US are laggards, but that is the theme of another day's commentary.)
My work with Axxess has been going on for over 4 years, and I am the so proud of our Engineering Team... now---more than ever.
Our clients are billing and making money, since October 1st, 2nd, 3rd,5th, 6th, 7th, and 8th, and will be able to bill and get funds today and next week. 
Moreover, we have our Axxess DDE Revenue Cycle Management tools assisting our clients, so they can see their remittance flow on a day-to-day, moment to moment basis.

The panic and crying out amongst the clients of competitors is reaching our ears. Reports are coming in form all over the US.
Behold, it is time for harvest.

Our Axxess engineering team nailed the ICD-10 conversion. This underscores this  fact: At Axxess, we are all about helping our clients make money.
These Engineers at Axxess, all located as a team here in the United States, are led by our CIO and Mobile Application Team Lead, and our Core Management Team--every player on these teams each and all are very competent. This IS industry leadership. Not talking about it. Doing it.

Come one come all! Come to Axxess where your software vendor gets it right -- the first time.
