Medicine, like sports, always seems to be wearier of new
technology because it’s less reliable. Most establishments that practice
medicine will rely on the tried and true methods over something new until that
new thing can become as reliable as the old methods. That said, there are some
medical apps that you can get on your smartphone that are worth having. For
example, there is an app that is especially designed for coders, physicians and
healthcare practicians, an incredible iOS app called ICD Convertor.
What is ICD
Convertor?
This is a fantastic medical app
that is especially developed to help coders, physicians and healthcare
providers with their ICD conversions. Basically, it allows its users to organize,
search and convert ICD9 codes to ICD10 codes and vice-versa. ICD Convertor is
currently available on the iOS platform and works without an Internet
connection as well.
What Does it Offer?
There are many options integrated in the ICD Convertor app,
each one of the easy to use, with intuitive touch controls. All you have to do
is install the app and search ICD codes by numeric codes (with or without
decimals) or by long description. Then, you can convert them, save them in custom
folders, add them to your Favorites, and so much more.
Fully loaded with the most current ICD codes from CMS (which
by the way are updated annually), ICD Convertor can be downloaded from the
following App Store link.
