John Squire said at the Chicago ACUG that their timetable for ICD10 would be early summer 2014. Apparently they also have to implement SNOMED to make someone happy and that will inadvertently make it easier to find dx based on standard language. They would also map from ICD9 to ICD10.

All sounds good, but the devil is in the details.
