1 Complete Practice Resources Healthcare Coding Consultants of Hawaii Software, Consulting, Coding, Training, and Education I. SOFTWARE AND CONSULTING Ready10 Basic PACKAGE $589 This web-based software package, Ready10, comes with one provider/five user licenses for the project management component and one web based user license for the code translation component. This is a one-time fee. Additional provider/five users/one code translation license blocks $99 ea Additional provider/five users/one code translation block should be purchased for the following reasons: Affordable way to communicate to providers they are a valued and necessary member of the transition team. Automates the chart review code conversions and chart review results which creates a comparative report card that measures provider documentation for the codes providers actually use Generates automatic invitations and status for task, milestone, and deadline completions which ensure provider accountability Post implementation provider productivity monitoring identifies ICD-10- related impact on number of visits and revenue so those issues can be quickly mitigated Project Management Component of Ready10 This is a web based application designed as a virtual consultant to provide comprehensive tools and guidance to physician practices managing their own ICD-10 Transition. It is completely task driven and creates your plan for you as you enter information. It comprises of ICD-10 Information, project planning tools, ICD-10 Assessments, instructional videos. The

2 project management component of Ready10 is a guide from the planning phases through implementation and even includes post implementation impact assessments that are often overlooked by other programs. The 10Ready is user-friendly software that saves all of your information and progress and allows the user editing capabilities that make it customizable to every practice. Going through each phase of the ICD-10 Transition is made easy by giving users the capability to plan, easily distribute the training and educational materials that are provided for each step, and gather and store all information that will be relevant to ICD-10 and the practice. Each step comes with instructions and examples created by expert consultants to save practices time and money. The educational videos clarify all phases of the transition and are a great way to get every member of the practice engaged. The ICD-10 Transition reaches every area of practice operations and many external stakeholders. This product clarifies who needs to know what, and the questions necessary to ask your external stakeholders. It is available for any size practice and specialty. Code Translation Component of Ready10 This is a conversion and training software that is useful in any phase of the transition. This software can be used to convert codes bidirectionally, look up codes by descriptions and keywords, and store specialty specific favorites lists. Furthermore, coding tips and crosswalks direct users to specific ICD-10 codes where NOS and NEC ICD- 9 codes exist. Unlike simple conversion tools, it can also be used to educate physicians on the new documentation elements required for ICD-10, perform chart audits, and create flash cards and other educational tools. All for less than the cost of code books! Save hours of time that would be spent manually converting codes, get coding tips, and engage physicians in the ICD-10 transition with the 10Ready software. Ready10 Pro Consulting PACKAGE $1995 Additional one provider/five users/one code translation license block $99 each This package includes everything in the Ready10 Basic plus: Conversion of the top twenty codes for your specialty by our consulting team Five hours of remote Ready10 consulting Your practice will have a dedicated ICD-10 expert to assist you in kick-starting your transition. The five hours of remote consulting can be spent assisting your practice in the setup of the Ready10 Project Management (PM) software, or assistance in

3 completing one or more of the tasks of your ICD-10 project as identified in the 10Ready PM software. Essentially, the choice is yours as to how you would like to utilize your consulting hours. Documentation Assessment Our team of certified coders will remotely review 50 of your charts and provide your providers with a brief summary of how your current documentation practices stack up to ICD-10 s increased specificity. The goal is to identify areas for improvement and consistently and methodically revise documentation practices so the necessary elements are in place prior to the implementation date, while benefiting ICD-9 code selection in the interim. Ready10 Custom Consulting PACKAGE Additional one provider/five users/one code translation license block $9,995 and up* $99 each This package includes everything in the Ready10 Basic plus: CPR offers a custom suite of services which includes project management, consulting, education, and software tools to ensure a smooth ICD-10 transition. Individualized project management includes a specialized awareness training followed by staff general training, followed by physician specialty training. CPR suggests providers begin coding records side-by-side utilizing ICD-9 and ICD-10 codes beginning in June of The first phase is a Kickoff meeting, which is 1.5 hours in length. This may be accomplished face-to-face or via conference call. At the kickoff meeting the consultant will explain the ICD-10 transition project, what to expect over the next year, and provide a list of reports and information CPR needs from physicians to begin the process. The kickoff meeting is followed by a comprehensive two day, on-site impact assessment of your practice. This impact assessment includes a full review of your day-to-day processes to determine the impact of ICD- Also included is a chart review examining current documentation practices and determining whether or not there is sufficient documentation to accurately assign the more specific ICD-10 codes. CPR will identify hot spots for clinical documentation improvement and use this as a basis for the initial code set training. We suggest 25 charts for each provider, using the most frequently billed ICD-9 codes as a guide for chart selection. CPR specialists will assist the practice in extracting this frequency list. Upon completion of the comprehensive impact assessment, the CPR project manager will provide the practice with a detailed ICD-10 Implementation Plan. The CPR consultant team will work with practice

4 and his staff members throughout the remainder of 2013 and 2014 to ensure all implementation tasks are completed prior to the October 1, 2014 go-live. In addition, CPR will evaluate training and education needs and will provide general and specialty specific ICD-10 code set training for staff members and providers. The training will commence in the fall of 2013 (general training) and proceed to specialty specific training beginning in early CPR project managers will remain actively involved through the ICD-10 implementation date (October 1, 2014) and also through postimplementation analysis (December, 2014) by guiding providers and staff through the transition. *Call for pricing Remote ICD-10 Project Management Consulting $125 per hour II.
