ICD-10 Doc Talk – Developed in collaboration with Bruce Scott, M.D., a practicing physician, surgeon and clinical educator, this app allows the user to listen to specialty-specific audio webinars designed to provide an overview of the impact ICD-10 will have on each specialty. These short audio webinars educate on the impacts within each specialty with targeted focus on the documentation requirements needed for ICD-10 specificity. This app is perfect for physicians, physician assistants, clinical documentation improvement specialists/nurses and other clinicians who will document or support the documentation of the medical record when ICD-10 arrives.

These decks and cards were chosen based on those terms and concepts that will require immediate retrieval and memorization. The user can choose to review only one deck, select multiple decks at the same time or scramble all the decks together for the ultimate challenge.
ICD-10 Virtual Code Book – Allows the user to enter clinical terms and/or disease/condition names to search for correct and specific ICD-10-CM codes without the use of a code book or encoder.

The app also offers specific ICD-10 documentation tips for many of the conditions listed, allowing the user to ensure the required documentation is included with the code choice.
