The 84th AHIMA Convention & Exhibit started yesterday in
my birthplace and home for the first 35 years of my life. I attended in spirit via communications with friends
and social media. Here are some #AHIMACon12
tagged tweets from the first day that I think share some of the spirit of Day
#1 of AHIMA’s 2012 convention.

Some Useful Business
Thoughts
@Daymarck: Audit records to determine if documentation
supports level of detail required says Joan Usher
@SmyrnaGirl: Providers face too many conflicting deadlines -
they really need to prioritize so #ICD10 gets done properly - @DeloitteHealth
@SmyrnaGirl: Providers, don't let 10/1/2014 give you false
sense of security - you'll need every minute for training/testing/transitioning
@SmyrnaGirl: Metrics/analytics seem key to helping providers
see the relation between accurate coding and accurate reimbursement
@ceckenrodt: ICD10 prep: Run data report to identify top
ICD9 codes used in MD practice now. Lots of NOS or NEC codes? Fill gaps now!
Some Thoughts about
Privacy…Shhh!!!@LarryLin: "Take care of people, take care of equipment, pay attention to detail, have balance". General R's philosophy.
@DonFluckinger: when #HIPAA omnibus rule comes out,
patients who report providers potentially can share in monetary awards
@DonFluckinger: mobile device security lags far behind in
health care. #ONC privacy officer: "Not right."
@LarryLin: Joy Pritts- disproportionate breaches are
about mobile devices
@DrZahwa: Excellent presentation from @ONC_HealthIT at
the planting the idea that privacy & security must be leadership driven
everywhere.
@LarryLin: Joy Pritts - adding privacy/security audit
outcomes to staff's performance evaluation.
@ReginaHolliday: I have now passed 6 booths focused on
Data privacy and not one on data sharing.

@abbadox: Are there restaurants you HAVE to visit while

@PrecyseTweets: The servers at our party last night wore
these buttons to promote the signature drink, ICD Potion 10. #ICD10.
