The time for ICD-10 implementation is getting closer. Easy Billing Professional vs 0.93.14b available now has the ability for both ICD-9 and ICD-10. When the new CMS 1500 form is released Easy Billing Professional will be ready to implement the ICD-10 Code process directly into the form and already in the 5010 protocol for electronic submission.

The number of diagnosis pointers will remain the same. Currently, it is possible to point up to four diagnosis codes out of a new maximum of 12 for each procedure code. Main recent changes in diagnosis pointers included going from one field, where pointers were entered with dahes, spaces, and commas in between, to being entered in four separate fields.

Once the new CMS 1500 form is implemented into Easy Billing Professional users will be given a set period of time to send the old CMS form to the carriers but after the deadline date, currently planned for October 2013 users will not be able to send the old CMS form. 

If you have any questions or would like to see a free demo and see how Easy Billing Professional is going to be not only be compatible with ICD-9 and ICD-10 plus the old CMS 1500 for and the new CMS 1500 form. Easy Billing has always promised to stay current, and proactively adhere to the changes in the medical billing industry.

Let us demonstrate just how easy and efficient we have made it for you. please call 800.618.6136

In 2009 the National Uniform Claim Comittee (NUCC) began work on a revised 1500 Health Insurance Claim Form, also known as the "CMS 1500" or the "HCFA 1500"  form. The revised form is designed to accommodate Version 5010 837P changes and ICD-10 implementation.
The revised form is currently awaiting approval from both the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS) and the Office of Management and Budget (OMB) in order to be finalized. During the CMS and OMB revision periods, the CMS 1500 form will be released for two public comment periods to be announced in the Federal Register.
"The goal of this work was to align the paper form with some of the changes in the electronic Health Care Claim..."  -NUCC website.
Note to Medical Billing Software Users: Easy Billing, Inc., medical billing software company, is closely monitoring updates regarding testing dates for the new CMS 1500 form and will be ready for implementation. Easy Billing Inc. keeps its medical billing software current with changes in the medical billing industry. All billers, medical offices and laboratories must adhere to the changes in accordance with the new form.

The NUCC recommended timeline for transitioning to the new 1500 Claim Form is as follows:

June 1, 2013

June 1 - September 30

October 1, 2013
Health plans, clearinghouses, and other information support vendors are ready to handle and accept the revised (02/12) 1500 Claim Form.
Providers can use either the current (08/05) or the revised (02/12) 1500 Claim Form. Health plans, clearinghouses, and billing vendors are able to accept and process either version of the form.
The current (08/05) 1500 Claim Form is discontinued; only the revised (02/12) 1500 Claim Form is to be used. All rebilling of claims will be on the revised (02/12) 1500 Claim Form from this date forward, even though earlier submissions may have been on the current (08/05) 1500 Claim Form.
