Alpha II supplies partners with updated code sets

Healthcare coding, compliance and reimbursement provider, Alpha II, will equip its partner’s end-users with its latest code sets, ICD-9 CM, Current Procedural Terminology (CPT) and Healthcare Common Procedure Coding System (HCPCS).

According to Montgomery, Ala.-based company, the codes permit end-users to utilize one consistent source, rather than the previous system that archived data through multiple sources and led to inconsistencies within data.

In addition, the codes will be updated quarterly and allow  customers to maintain previous workflow processes without reformating their existing health IT platforms, Alpha II said.

A string of executive orders from the White House created serious concerns among radiologists and other healthcare providers throughout the United States. The American College of Radiology issued a statement to help guide its members through the chaos. 

Bridgefield Capital, founded in 2015, has previously invested in such popular brands as Cirque Du Soleil, Del Monte and Quiksilver. This transaction is expected to be completed in the second half of 2025. 

Given the precarious excitement of the moment—or is it exciting precarity?—policymakers and healthcare leaders must set directives guiding not only what to do with AI but also when to do it.
