Five Looking at Ten is an upcoming month-long series on ICD10monitor and Talk Ten Tuesdays, through which we will examine what lessons have been learned since the nation’s healthcare system adopted ICD-10, which became effective Oct. 1, 2014. Each week, we will report on lessons learned as we approach year five – while at the same time, looking ahead to the implementation of ICD-11.

Joining us during this broadcast is our special guest is Denise Buenning, who, during the run-up to ICD-10, was the deputy director for the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS) Office of E-health Standards & Services.
