Our Story

When Parth developed the concept for ICD-10 Charts back in 2013, the goal was just to help the small Internal Medicine practice of Parth’s father. Parth's mother, who had managed the family practice for the past 20 years, was deeply concerned with the impending transition to ICD-10. Like most, she had heard the horror stories about how ICD-10 could cause practices to shut down, so she brought her concerns to her son Parth, who was helping manage the practice before beginning medical school at Mercer University. After 7 years of working part-time in his family’s practice, Parth had extensive experience in medical coding and EHR. After hearing his mother’s fears regarding ICD-10, he began looking for ways to help. All the training systems he found on the market were either too expensive for his family’s small practice, or too rudimentary to fit their needs. It seemed to him that their only choices were to spend thousands of dollars in implementation costs or lose reimbursements for their services. Parth found the situation presented to his hard-working family unacceptable and eventually came up with an idea for a system that would help his family’s practice thrive. His idea was to create something that was so practical and user-friendly that even his parents, who had difficulty using computers, could continue to use it after he left for medical school.

Parth took his his dilemma and solution to his close friend and former college roommate, Will Pattiz. As someone with a background in marketing, Will felt well-suited to help Parth tackle the issue. Will had been working to raise awareness and promote the conservation of America’s National Parks through More Than Just Parks, a project he and his brother co-founded. Growing up with the example of his grandfather’s unrelenting devotion to his patients as a family doctor in Southern California made the project hit home with Will. So Parth hired Will's company to consult on the project.

As the project grew, the ICD-10 Charts team continued to add new consultants to help handle the thousands of medical practices using the free resources everyday. By the October ICD-10 deadline, Parth and the ICD-10 Charts team had turned an idea to help one small family practice, into something that revolutionized how hospitals and practices functioned in America.
