The initial compliance program, which is often a massive effort, is followed by an integration into existing compliance programs.  Most recently, the new mandates for ICD-10 mean new programs must be scoped, funded and staffed as deadlines loom.  The need to assess the readiness of trading partners, as well as your own internal groups, makes this a significant effort.

The Automation Challenge
If your company has automated compliance systems, most were never designed for ICD-10 programs.  In order to expand these systems, insurance companies must make a capital investment and an even greater expenditure to customize these systems.  Cost is hardly the only issue.  The time required to make a system operational significantly reduces the time to do the actual work to ensure compliance.  Some organizations prefer to use more staff with tools like spreadsheets, simply to get started.  However, this approach is labor intensive and error-prone, resulting in greater risk and significant cost.
