Second, the company's Managing Partner and CEO Michael Arrigo will be speaking at the American Academy of Professional Coders (AAPC) national conference on health care diagnosis and procedure coding to be held April 1 – April 4 2012 in Las Vegas. His presentation is entitled, "How Health Care Reform and ICD-10 will Impact Revenue Cycle Management."

"Quality measures and payment reform as well as the HITECH Act, Meaningful Use, and Accountable Care Organizations are in the news, but the interaction with these standards and HIPAA mandates such as ICD-10 are just beginning to be understood. The new diagnosis and procedure coding standard ICD-10 has sweeping impacts for hospitals and health plans," said Michael Arrigo, Managing Partner for No World Borders. "Companies should seek expertise to help with Meaningful Use Assessments and ICD-10 assessments to avoid unnecessary risk," he continued.
