NCCC Information Portal (NIP) - Click here to enter

The NCCC has been working towards improving the electronic distribution of information about coding and classification, specifically through the NCCC Information Portal (NIP). 

The next step to fulfil that aim, is for you to register at the NIP if you have not done so already.

Because we will no longer be delivering information through mail (like Coding Matters newsletter) or email, it is very important that you register in order to be up-to-date with coding advice.

Some important information about the changes:

1. What used to be called the ‘ICD-10-AM Commandments’ will be known as the ‘Coding Q&A’.
2. Coding advice published in October 2010 on the NCCC website will be included at the Coding Q&A on the NIP
3. Coding Q&A will be posted on the NIP in April 2011 for immediate implementation.
4. Thereafter, Coding Q&A will be published in June and December each year for implementation from July and January and July respectively.
5. From NIP, you will be able to:
   1. search the Q&A by publication date or text
   2. print the Q&A
6. The NCCC will advise you by email when there is an update to Coding Q&A available.

We are aware that, on our request, many of you forwarded your contact details to us over the last few months.  At the start of this project we had anticipated that we would be circulating information via email. However, the benefits of providing access to you directly through the NIP have outweighed that approach.  Security would be compromised if we tried to ‘auto register’ those people who’ve already sent their details, so we do apologise for now requiring you to register, but it means a more secure system and we hope you will embrace the long term advantages of this approach.

The NCCC Information Portal (NIP) is a web-based information system that will allow you to:

1. Submit public submissions for ICD-10-AM/ACHI/ACS or AR-DRG
2. Submit query requests
3. Register for NCCC events
4. Subscribe to NCCC correspondence list
5. Maintain your contact details
6. Download software, products and information
7. Development of NIP will continue to provide more services online over the coming months. This will include document access, online discussion and voting for committee members and registration for events.
