Deadline Extended for ICD-10 Provider Readiness Assessment Survey

On behalf of the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS), an ICD-10 provider readiness assessment survey was distributed via email to all providers on Monday, January 20. This is a legitimate, authorized survey from CMS. The survey is being conducted via the Survey Monkey tool, which can be accessed from any Internet web browser. The results of the survey will be analyzed by CMS and shared with each of the states.

CMS provided the following update on January 28:

The closing date of the national ICD-10 Provider Readiness Assessment previously distributed has been extended to February 10, 2014. If you have already responded we thank you. If you have not, we would greatly appreciate your taking the time to respond to this assessment at the link below before February 10th.

The purpose of this assessment is to gauge the current state of overall ICD-10 readiness among our providers and help inform how we can best assist our providers through the transition to ICD-10. The questions in this assessment should take no more than 10 minutes to complete and all responses will remain anonymous.

Thank you in advance for your response.
