Objectives

The Objectives of the 2010 NACC ICF Conference are:

• To review and accentuate current debates about the degree to which ICF can be applied in specific disciplines, for example, in the Rehabilitation Sciences;

• To raise awareness about the alignment of ICF coding with current health informatics initiatives;

• To provide an educational opportunity to learn about basic and applied ICF coding, in addition to but distinct from the familiar ICF conceptual framework; and

• To enable enhanced sharing of resources regarding ICF applications between and among American and Canadian scientists and government agencies.
