New OPEN MINDS Market Intelligence Reports Provide Insight On ICD-10, Medication-Assisted Therapies, And Accreditation For Provider Organizations
GETTYSBURG, Pa. (August 2, 2015) — Three new Market Intelligence Reports were released by the OPEN MINDS Marketing Intelligence team in July. The reports are a highly sought after resource, published weekly by OPEN MINDS’ team of experts, that focus on complex topics affecting organizations in the health and human services field.
The three new reports released in July provide in-depth coverage on the topics of ICD-10, the use of Medication-Assisted Therapies (MAT) in addiction treatment, and accreditation for behavioral health and social service provider organizations. A short summary of each report follows.
What Does The Transition To ICD-10 Mean For The Health & Human Service System?
The ICD-10 is the tenth revision of the International Statistical Classification of Diseases and Related Health Problems. In this report, the OPEN MINDS team reviews the details of ICD-10, including how it differs from ICD-9 and how it relates to other coding systems. The report also provides insight on making the transition to ICD-10 from both the payer and provider perspective.
How Are Medication-Assisted Therapies Used In Addiction Treatment?
The OPEN MINDS team provides a full explanation of Medication-Assisted Therapies (MAT) and how it relates to substance abuse in this informative, detailed report. The report also covers the types of MAT available, regulations for opioid dependence administration, and how Medicare and state Medicaid programs cover MAT.
In this report, the OPEN MINDS team provides an overview on each of the behavioral health accreditation organizations, including Council on Accreditation (COA), CARF International, and Joint Commission. The reports details the accreditation process for each organization, including the cost and standards, as well as a list of the behavioral health programs/organizations that COA, CARF, and Joint Commission serve.
