Description

The ICD-10-CM and ICD-10-PCD 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 codesets scheduled to replace ICD-9-CM in the USA on October 1, 2015.

Handbook content reflects 2015 versions of the Official Guidelines for Coding and Reporting and AHA Coding Clinic 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 supporting sources. This logical approach has allowed the Handbook to transform the most well liked textbook for hospital and physician office coder training.

Exercise questions and answers are presented in clear, technically correct language that progress from easy to more difficult. Exercise answers in the case summaries list assigned and as it should be sequenced codes, followed by a comments section that explains how codes were assigned and why other codes were not assigned.

Each chapter includes an overview that highlights important points, as well as learning outcomes and terms to know features that help readers bear in mind and absorb new information. A Take into account that… feature provides sidebar comments or facts that alert readers to special information or perspectives. Expanded indexes toughen the speed of finding and applying new information.

Supplemental training aids are available online to instructors of recognized health information management programs. Aids include PowerPoint slides (covering the key points of each chapter) and additional exercises for quizzes, tests, extra-credit work, and employee evaluations. Please visit AHACentralOffice.com and register under Educator Resources to receive these training materials.

Scores of Exercises and Quizzes
The Handbook contains more than 200 up to date in-chapter exercises, case examples, and final review questions. 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 believe the patient s condition as well as medical history, reason for admission or encounter, laboratory results, procedures performed, and the diagnoses listed. Readers should apply pertinent coding principles and official coding guidelines in making code assignments and designating the principal diagnosis and procedure for each episode of care.

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