Juliet A. Santos, MSN, CCRN, FNP-BC, Senior Director of HIMSS Business-Centered Systems and the HIMSS Medical Banking Project, introduces the HIMSS ICD-10 Playbook, which provides critical information to assist hospitals, ambulatory centers, practitioners, and their staff in transitioning to ICD-10. The PlayBook was developed by HIMSS staff with support from the Medical Banking and Financial Systems Committee, ICD-10 Task Force, ICD-10 PlayBook Work Group, and 25 organizations including associations, health plans, providers, vendors, consultants, government and banks. The purpose of the PlayBook is to centralize information for strategy development, implementation, best practice, remediation, human resource planning, advanced financial risk identification, risk mitigation, and to direct the user to additional resources.
