The new releases fully accommodate the ICD-10 coding structure, an industry mandate paramount to compliance with The Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act (HIPAA).

“Many health plans are being forced to modernize their entire technology infrastructure in order to comply with the ICD-10 requirement,” stated Robert A. Tulio, President of RAM Technologies. “With our new releases, RAM clients have the peace of mind of being compliant with this mandate well in advance of the October 2014 directive.”
