I have heard/read conflicting reports regarding procedures after 10/1/16.

Some say any charges prior to 10/1 will be accepted w/ICD-9 while others say that any communication after 9/30 must be in ICD-10 format.

In a quandry

It is a visit date activation. So whether you use 9 or 10 is based on the date of the encounter, if it is prior to Oct 1 then use the ICD-9 CM codes, oct 1 and after for visit date you use the ICD-10 CMS codes.
