The Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS) Survey and Certification Group is sponsoring a webinar entitled “OASIS-C1/ICD9” on September 3, 2014, 2:00-3:30 pm EST. The OASIS-C1/ICD9 will go into effect January 1, 2015.
A new version of the OASIS data items set (i.e. OASIS-C1) had been scheduled for implementation on October1, 2014. However, five data items contained in OASIS-C1 require the use ICD-10 codes. In light of the fact that ICD-10 has been delayed until at least October 1, 2015, CMS has determined that it is necessary to make interim changes to the OASIS-C1 data items set and also the process for the reporting of OASIS-C1 data.

Despite the year-long ICD-10 delay, OASIS-C1 implementation will move forward but with a new start date of Jan. 1, 2015, and some interim changes to the five coding items that required the use of ICD-10 codes, CMS says in a May 20 release.
