2011 adoption of ICD-10 is required by senate bill 628

In 2011, per the mandate of Senate Bill 628, the United States will move from the ICD-9 system of disease classification to ICD-10, a much more complex system that reflects recent advances in disease detection and treatment via biomedical informatics, genetic research and international data-sharing. U.S. ICD-10 adoption has the potential to revolutionize the nation's health care system and produce a huge wave of IT spending. However, the process will require a massive overhaul of the nation's medical coding system.
