For this scavenger, students should use their favorite web search tool to identify a recent news article (published within the last 6 months) that has ICD-10 as a primary topic of discussion.
Next, the student should write a synopsis of the article. The synopsis should not be a point blank word for word copying of the article, but it should just include key points.
After the synopsis, the student should write their opinion on how the items discussed, in the article, impact providers now and moving into the future.
Remember the item being identified should be a news article (not a research project, dissertation, or blog). Students should refer to the web scavenger hunt rubric prior to submitting their work.
