ICD-10-CM 2014 Coding Workbook

Coders can ensure a successful transition to ICD-10-CM by advancing their coding knowledge and skills. The ICD-10-CM Coding Workbook is designed to address this need. Increased familiarity with ICD-10-CM will significantly reduce the amount of time needed to code records in ICD-10-CM and is the best way to reduce coding and billing errors after the transition to ICD-10-CM. Containing entry-level, intermediate and advanced coding exercises, the ICD-10-CM Coding Workbook is the ideal tool for coders to sharpen their coding skills. The book includes exercises, coding scenarios and case studies to help both students and experienced coders understand correct ICD-10-CM coding. The material can be used for education in a group setting or as a self-study tool. The Coding Practice scenarios and case studies in the ICD-10-CM Coding Workbook are based on actual healthcare encounters. In all exercises, coders will need to apply the pertinent coding principles, conventions and guidelines in code selection and assignment of the principal and secondary diagnoses. This book is designed to be used in conjunction with the current ICD-10-CM draft code set and Official Guidelines for Coding and Reporting. Coding with ICD-10-CM requires a more advanced knowledge of anatomy and physiology and an understanding of what must be included in the medical record documentation to be able to assign the correct diagnosis code. The most benefit will be derived when the book is used with Contexo Media's other coding resources, such as Advanced Anatomy and Physiology for ICD-10-CM/PCS and ICD-10-CM Documentation: A How-To Guide for Coders, Physicians and Healthcare Facilities. * The ideal tool for both students and experienced coders to sharpen their coding skills. * Contains entry-level, intermediate and advanced exercises, coding scenarios and case studies based on actual healthcare encounters to help both students and coders understand correct ICD-10-CM coding * Prov
