According to the KLAS report "ICD-10: Preparing for October

planning to engage third-party firms to assist with one or more of
the preparation steps. As one of these consulting firms, TrustHCS
conducts ICD-10 assessments, develops training programs,
re-engineers revenue cycles and identifies clinical documentation
weaknesses. "Trust HCS is a great fit for me. With their focused
leadership in assisting clients through the many challenges of
preparing a broad range of staff, in many health care areas, toward
ICD-10 preparation," mentions Haas.
Haas's PhD credentials with her minor in business administration
give her the understanding of the science and discipline of
healthcare. She has the experience and credibility needed to lead
all ranges of healthcare professionals; from nurses and coders to
physician colleagues and the executive suite. Prior to joining
