Even though President Barack Obama signed into law postponement of ICD-10 implementation to Oct. 1, 2015, the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS) has yet to take official action.
Nearly three weeks after Congress passed the bill and the president signed it CMS has so far only made a small change to its official website on ICD-10, acknowledging the new deadline by merely quoting the text of the bill.
"With enactment of the Protecting Access to Medicare Act of 2014, CMS is examining the implications of the ICD-10 provision and will provide guidance to providers and stakeholders soon," the website states.
