Please share the following with your members regarding I-10 implementation. While impossible to predict whether political considerations might impact the planned implementation, as you can see, it looks as though there is strong support at the committee level in the House of Representatives to proceed with implementation as planned. Regardless, as coders, we need to be ready no matter what happens and you can be sure that AAPC will be prepared with the tools and resources to provide all members with the assisted needed.
