subject: GSS e-learning Tool for ICD Conversions [print this page] GSS Infotech has developed an e-learning tool named as MEDICODE for converting the ICD codes. This tool also helps in understanding the ICD migration. It can work independently to assist you in the transition of 4010 to 5010 standards and ICD-9 to ICD-10code-sets. The tool is very helpful for understanding the concept of ICD conversions and the changes involved in it.
Testing Services for ICD 10 Conversions
GSS Testing strategy for ICD 10 conversion is developed based on the fundamental governing principles of Software Validation. Some of the key Testing services of GSS e-learning Tool for ICD Conversions are:
Comprehensive understanding on User requirements & Usage conditions
Parameterization of the System
Pre-defined expected test outcomes
Test cases to have high probability of exposing errors in the system
Possibility of re-use of test cases during post deployment enhancements
Lower life cycle costs (initial + recurring) of testing and verification
Good coverage and traceability of requirements
Enhanced upstream quality of the system
The key considerations for effective Testing and assuring defect free applications in this ICD 10 conversion engagement are derived by our Testing experts through a brainstorming discussion. They are:
Involvement of the Testing teams during the early stages, after the finalization of requirements.
Test strategy in terms of
Risk assessment based on methodology chosen for ICD 10 conversion by the development team / Capabilities / Automation of the processes / Tools used etc.
Testing types, automation scope and use of testing tools
Collaboration with Development team in terms of overall timelines / dependencies, etc.
Configuration management to ensure the synchronization of changes with respect to the implementation scope
