Thank you, Jeremy.Today I want to begin by reviewing some of the challenges facing organizations in addition to their 4010 to 5010 Migration.Next I want to examine the choices for a migration solution.I want to zero in on what Perficient believes is a rapid implementation solution called “Step Up/Step Down” from our partner Edifecs.We will demonstrate how this solution addresses the challenges.Finally, I plan to review the Pros and Cons of this solution based on Perficient’s practical experience and then discuss Next Steps.
Let’s examine our options:Step Up / Step Down: This strategy implies making changes to the intake system of transactions (Gateway component) such that the inbound transactions are mapped or transformed from the 5010 transaction set to the 4010A1 transaction set and then passed downstream leaving the complete existing processing engine intact. In addition, outbound transactions are converted back to 5010 before being sent to trading partners. This strategy would limit the scope and the remediation effort as the transactions currently being processed would continue unchanged.Remediation: This strategy implies making enhancements to core processing (or back-end) systems to meet HIPAA 5010 and ICD-10 compliance while at the same time upgrading the front-end systems (such as Gateway) in order to process 5010 transactions and ICD-10 code sets.Complete replacement of systems: This strategy originates from the belief that the 5010 and ICD-10 changes are significant enough to require complete replacement of the entire claims processing system for the health plan or provider organization. This would include the adjudication (claims processing) systems, transaction processing systems (EDI Gateway), user interfaces, reporting systems and potentially other business systems.If your organization is facing any of the challenges that we reviewed, especially competing large IT projects or you are getting a late start, we believe that the Step Up/Step Down solution can save time and money and mitigate risk.
ChallengesWe just looked at the timeline for an understanding of the regulatory deadline pressures. Here are a few other challenges facing organizations with a 4010 to 5010 migration:Competing large IT projects – most of our large provider organizations, especially hospitals, are working to implement electronic medical records systems which are enterprise level efforts. In healthcare payers, we are seeing claims processing systems being modernized and streamlined to reduce paperwork and costs.Here is a big issue: The lack of experienced professionals with EDI X12 experience. Not only is there a shortage of people, but the rules and standards are being updated faster than tax software! Here is the issue that our video highlighted: Making sure that your 4010A1 and new 5010 transactions match for billing and accounts receivable. Your CFO isn’t going to want to hear that after the migration that the billing has suddenly increased or, worse yet, decreased. It will be critical to choose a solution that allows the management of this important issue. Otherwise there is a serious audit risk from government agencies and external organizations.We hear this one a lot. We are waiting on our healthcare application software vendor for ICD-10 upgrades, but we think their timeline will make us miss our regulatory deadlines! In addition, an upgrade to a major application (think EPIC or Cerner) will kick off extensive integration and regression testing in our organization. We need some options . . .
