Do you think there will be enough certified ICD-10 Trainers to meet the demand for training the healthcare industry 2013? I have been pondering this question a lot lately and wonder what others think.

I doubt it. Some of the trainers are going to be limited to their employers; others may only work for top dollar.
There are a lot of organizations out there draggin the feet on this conversion; I believe part of it is proctrastination, the other part avoidance and a little bit of "wait and see". Unfortunately, that probably leaves a lot to be done on the education front.
I predict people rushing last minute to try to get the education needed and meet the requirements of CEUs or testing through AAPC.
I think it's a huge waste of time learning something I can't even use for a good 18 months! Like the old saying goes, "when you don't use it you lose it". A year from now I will start the training but I need to get through 5010 tests/and software imcompatibility first.
First things first!
