These last few weeks have wrought a lot of fun and silliness about definitions of the new ICD-10 diagnoses codes. Ya gotta admit there's been a lot of coverage and funnin' about it all. The http://www.icd10watch.com/ site sponsored by 3M - and a few other ICD-10 sites - have posted quite a few funny and informative posts about ICD-10 diagnoses and related humor.
So yesterday was Fall Break. One of my kids brought up the wisdom of Dr. Seuss in a round about way and I thought: How apropos! Who might provide some terse insight and humor? Dr. Seuss! Of course!
So what would Dr. Seuss (God rest his soul) have thought about all this ICD-10 joking/craziness? Most surely something witty and wise? Of course he would!
Permit me to take a guess and make up a few Dr. Seuss-Ism's. (Indeed, I honor Dr. Seuss and only wish I was 1/1,000,000,000 as witty as he was)
What Dr. Seuss Might Have Said About ICD-10
1. "Will ICD-10 succeed? Yes indeed, yes indeed! 98 and three-quarters percent guaranteed!"
2. "ICD-9 has been truer than true. ICD-10 is newer than new. And deeply known by only a few."
3. "Don't shed tears for ICD-9 passing away, go with the sway, give a cheer - ICD-10 is coming our way!"
Oh the places we're all going!
All due respect
