Findings from the ICD-10 industry
readiness assessment will be used by CMS to understand each
sector's progress toward compliance and to determine what
communication and educational efforts can best help affected
entities obtain the tools and resources they need to achieve timely
compliance with ICD-10. Respondents to this information collection
are health care providers, payers, and vendors.
The revised survey has been
revised to account for the new deadline and to add text that
clarifies three questions. A second survey instrument (Appendix
D-2) is also based on the previously approved instrument, but is
further modified for the final data collection, to occur after the
ICD-10 compliance deadline. Text in the second survey is reworded
to account for the fact that respondents should already be
ICD-10-compliant by the fielding date.
On behalf of this Federal agency, I certify that
the collection of information encompassed by this request complies
with 5 CFR 1320.9 and the related provisions of 5 CFR
1320.8(b)(3).
