PLATOCODE and “Cure for the Common Code” are registered trademarks owned or used under license by PLATOCODE Ltd in the USA.

The PLATOCODE® company has been processing

ICD-10 inpatient charts since the 1990s.

We don’t rely on mapping tables, so ICD-10-CM for

the US is just as good. PCS isn’t a problem either since

it’s just a human-readable version of our patented

binary pattern.

Generating PCS occurs in the blink of an eye and

immediately is as accurate as the o�cial index- same

as any other indexed code set, even research variants

you created yourself.

So if you want a CAC vendor that has already

experienced an ICD-10 transition AND can help free

up the hours coders need to focus on ICD-10 and

other professional needs, give us a call today.

The countdown to ICD-10 conversion is fast approaching and it’s

estimated to impact HIM departments post implementation with:

• 50% decline in productivity ¹

• 100-200% increase in denial rates and accounts ²

• 20-40% increase in receivable days ²

Together that adds up to a lot of missed revenue and

reimbursement dollars.

If you don’t act

on ICD-10 soon,

it will cost you later!
