April Listening Sessions to Gather Insights About ICD-10 End-to-End Testing

National Government Services (NGS), under contract to the Centers for Medicaid and Medicare Services (CMS), is hosting a series of listening sessions to gather insights and feedback from the health care industry about end-to-end testing of ICD-10 and other HIPAA administrative simplification requirements.

NGS has posted draft checklists to the End-to-End Testing section of the CMS website for discussion during these upcoming listening sessions.  The checklists focus on testing for:

• Payers
• Large Practices
• Small Practices
• Vendor to Provider
• Vendor to Payer 

The NGS and CMS will further refine these checklists based on your feedback.
