This will kill most solo and group practices of less than 3 MD's causing the disappearance of private and personal health care and allowing for forced intuitional (UMC like) healthcare for all. Not the nest care for grandma and grandpa

I have yet to see the benefits of the transition to ICD 10 on patient care.

The implementation of government programs like this do not promote better patient care. It only ensures that we spend more time staring at a computer screen clicking buttons rather than addressing our patients' actual health concerns.

Besides forcing us to spend more time choosing codes and thus less time with patients, the administrative and financial burden to practices will be immense. Thank you for your support.

The potential coding changes will not improve patient care it will rather increase time spent in front of a computer instead of a patient

Please stop ICD-10 implementation. Contact me with any questions with regards to how it negatively impacts health care delivery and distances the physician further from the patient. Thank you.

Does the US want physicians to be clerks or help patients? ICD-10 burden will cause fewer patients to be seen. That simple.

ICD10 is bad for medicine. It is an administrative nightmare.

Although my electronic health records are ID 10 ready, insurance providers are not. We have been advised to keep 6 months worth of funds in anticipation of delays from insurance providers. Not acceptable!

Causes physicians to focus time away from patient care and more and more clerical work. Now paperwork takes more time than patient care! When is it going to stop? AMA REPRESENTS WHO? The one that pays them roughly $40 million....federal government.....not physicians!

Please stop the implementation of ICD 10. It is massive bureaucracy we do not need.
