healthsystemCIO.com Survey Shows CIOs Researching ICD-10 Coding Tools

09/29/2011 By Anthony Guerra Leave a Comment

CIOs Researching ICD-10 Tools

More than three quarters of CIOs are looking to technologies such as computer-assisted coding (CAC) and natural language processing (NLP) to help their organizations manage the increased coding complexities presented by ICD-10, according to the September healthsystemCIO.com SnapSurvey.

By far, the majority of those looking at the aforementioned solutions are leaning toward CAC (71 percent), while just under 30 percent are investigating the possibilities of NLP to extract billing codes from unstructured text.

For those that favor CAC, more than 70 percent are still trying to decide which product they will ultimately buy, while the remainder are evenly split between those who are implementing or have already done so.
