Are you ready for 5010?

5010 UPDATE: As you are aware, the healthcare industry is working through its first full month with the new ANSI 5010 format. Our industry is facing challenges right now as the result of payers shifting to this new format, and we are coordinating with the payers to resolve these issues as quickly as possible. Capario is also working with organizations such as the American Medical Association and the Cooperative Exchange to share the issues we're collectively identifying and to raise the market's general awareness of these issues. We have posted a report of these issues on our portal for our customers to reference. If you are a current Capario portal customer, just log into the portal as usual to view the issues report. Non-portal users can access their login information by clicking here and following the instructions in Step #2. There will be an issues tab at the top of the page in the main menu where you can view the entire list or just a quick overview of the latest issues. As new issues are identified, the report will be updated.

Please be assured that this is our highest priority. Capario has increased our support staff in anticipation of this transition; however, all payers and trading partners are seeing increased response times when researching inquiries. Please feel free to contact us at any time.

ICD-10 Update: The conversion to ICD-10 will have a major impact across the entire healthcare industry, but taking proactive steps will help manage the risk. Capario will be monitoring HHS updates to the timeline and will be prepared to incorporate changes for ICD-10 ahead of the deadline. If you have any questions or concerns please email us at ICD-10@capario.com.
