Information services provider Wolters Kluwer Health, US, has announced that Medi-Span customers still have time to add previously released files to map Medi-Span proprietary vocabularies to ICD-10, helping to meet the Department of Human and Health Services (HHS) compliance requirements by the October 2014 deadline.
Nearly one year ago, Medi-Span launched ICD-10 mapping files for its customers to map Medi-Span proprietary vocabularies to ICD-10, helping customers to meet HHS compliance requirements before the previously-set deadline. Several Medi-Span clinical content sets utilise proprietary vocabularies to identify diseases, conditions and procedures. These include Drug Disease Monitoring System, Medical Conditions Master Database, The Medi-Span Solution or Middleware COM, Drug Information Bridge, and Medi-Span Clinical. Medi-Span continues to support its customers with the flexibility to either continue with existing Medi-Span solutions or to implement more current and advanced Medi-Span offerings to meet the ICD-10 requirements. Available in flat file and API solutions, these files help enable healthcare systems to translate to and from codes in the patient record, supporting interoperability.
Part of Wolters Kluwer Health, Medi-Span is a provider of drug information for thousands of healthcare professionals worldwide. With more than 30 years experience, Medi-Span continues to offer authoritative drug databases in a variety of formats, including clinical decision support and disease suite modules, application programming interfaces and stand-alone software applications.
