In its advisory role under the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act of 1996 (HIPAA), the Workgroup for Electronic Data Interchange (WEDI) periodically brings to the attention of the Department of Health and Human Services issues related to Administrative Simplification and related areas that it believes merit review and consideration.

WEDI has been conducting ICD-10-CM/ICD-10-PCS (ICD-10) readiness surveys since 2009 to gauge industry progress and has recently completed analysis of our June 2015 survey. As you are aware, these surveys are critical to assessing industry readiness and to identify stakeholders that may be struggling with compliance. Survey questions paralleled those in prior surveys to facilitate direct comparison. We have attached a full report of the June results.
