From a practice management point of view how is everyone handling compensating coders with the change to ICD10 considring the challenging changes of codes and coding to more Specificity. Are coders being given raises or higher pay per chart and/or per hour?
This question will help to understand from the hospital or physician practice point of view if they should pay more money for services due to ICD 10 changes. A loss in productivity due to new code sets is on the way. I would like to know how some people are handling. Coders and practice managers please answer. Is more money being requested or are current rates, contracrts and/or hourly pay remainning the same.
Thank you for you time.
