Coalition for ICD-10

The Coalition for ICD-10, a broad-based healthcare industry advocacy group, today announced the addition of Premier, Inc. to its member roster. Premier, a leading healthcare improvement company, unites an alliance of approximately 3,400 U.S. hospitals and 110,000 other providers to enable better care and outcomes at a lower cost.

The Coalition for ICD-10 brings together hospitals, health plans, medical device manufacturers, coding specialists, physician office managers, and health information technology (HIT) vendors united in support of U.S. adoption of the ICD-10 coding standard. The Coalition for ICD-10 promotes the critical importance of ICD-10 to improving quality measurement, public health surveillance, clinical research, and healthcare payment through research, education, advocacy, and mobilization.

“ICD-10 codes are more precise, enabling more robust healthcare research, as well as more accurate reimbursement,” said Blair Childs, Premier’s senior vice president of public affairs. “Health systems have invested millions in new technologies and training programs to prepare for the new standard. Now is the time to implement this important advancement in healthcare.”
