The American College of Cardiology (ACC) hosts their 3-day Scientific Sessions (ACC.18) conference annually. This year, the ACC.18 was held in Orlando, Florida at the Orange County Convention Center! This event brings in around 18,000 cardiovascular professionals around the WORLD!
In general, talking about the urgency for understanding the new MACRA/MIPS reporting usually results in physicians’ eyes glazing over! This topic seems to cause instant headaches! As consultants, we work hard at helping physicians to provide the best possible care. For this reason, we feel impelled to help spread the word regarding the urgency of the March deadline to submit your MIPS data to avoid reimbursement cuts in 2019.

We are all about knocking the ball out of the park, when it comes to goals. This summer we posted a position for an intern. The mission…..if they dared to accept … was to impact our social media campaigns within 12 weeks of walking through the door. Pratik Doshi accepted the mission and then proceeded to surpass every goal!! Pratik Doshi joined our CardioServ family over the summer. Within this short time Pratik quickly became part of our team. He started his intern by spending a week with us in our office, here in West Palm Beach. Pratik met the team and even had the opportunity to meet some of our clients when he joined us at an educational lecture we presented at JFK Medical Center.
Doctors’ offices, hospitals and everyone covered under HIPPA will be making the much anticipated switch to the ICD-10 on October 1, 2015. The number of diagnostic codes will increase from 14,000 to 70,000. What does this mean for a cardiology department or office? This new coding system has the potential to better identify public health problems and manage disease and outcomes. However, under ICD-10, there will be 845 codes for angioplasty! How can cardiologists understand and be prepared for the changes? Read on for the general and cardiology specific changes occurring and how you can be ready.
