Críticas

"The ICD-10-CM and ICD-10 PCS Coding Handbook is the most comprehensive teaching tool on the market, presented in logical progression, with integration of diagnosis and procedure codes. There are more exercises than other coding workbooks, giving the students plenty of practice. I have not needed to supplement material as I have with other coding workbook products." Jane E. Turley, MS, RHIA, CCS, CPC Program Director and Coding Instructor, Health Information Management Program Illinois State University "I've used the Handbook for probably 25 years--first the ICD-9-CM and now the ICD-10-CM/PCS. I've found the AHA publication to be thorough, and because it is updated annually, I can depend upon any code changes and Coding Clinic advice to be incorporated into the chapters. I've looked at other textbooks, but none can compare to the depth of coding expertise to be gleaned from its pages."

Reseña del editor

The ICD-10-CM and ICD-10-PCS Coding Handbook is the only guide published in collaboration with the Central Office on ICD-10-CM/PCS (formerly, Central Office on ICD-9-CM) of the American Hospital Association. ICD-10-CM and ICD-10-PCS are the HIPAA code sets that replaced ICD-9-CM in the U.S. on October 1, 2015.

Handbook content reflects 2015 versions of the Official Guidelines for Coding and Reporting and AHA Coding Clinic(R) for ICD-10-CM and ICD-10-PCS content published through May 2015. The Handbook's format and style of presentation follows that of previous editions inspired by the Faye Brown approach to coding instruction. The text leads students to logical answers and provides primary suppporting sources. This logical approach has allowed the Handbook to become the most popular textbook for hospital and physician coder training.

Each chapter includes an overview that highlights important points, as well as "learning outcomes" and "terms to know" features that help readers understand and absorb new information. A "Remember..." feature provides sidebar comments or facts that alert readers to special information or perspectives. Expanded indexes enhance the speed of finding and applying new information.

Scores of Exercises and Quizzes

The Handbook contains more than 200 updated in-chapter exercises, case examples, and final review questions. All exercises are presented in clear, technically correct language that progress from easy to more difficult.

Appendix C contains a complete workbook of case-summary exercises for more advanced practice. The case-summary exercises are based on actual health records and require readers to consider the patient's condition as well as medical history, reason for admission or encounter, laboratory results, procedures performed, and the diagnoses listed. Readers must apply pertinent coding principals and official coding guidelines in making code assignments and designating the principal diagnosis and procedure for each epidsode of care.

More then 50 four-color illustrations of anatomy and common disorders and procedures make it easier for readers to remember and absorb complex information. Additional appendixes explaining reimbursement methodologies and "present on admission" indicators will be especially valuable to new students.
