Coding and You: What Every Healthcare Professional Should Know (Handbook)

Coding medical records may not be your primary responsibility, but it takes a team of smart, coding-savvy medical professionals to understand potential risks to the organization's compliance and its revenue cycle.

This handbook offers a general coding overview and describes the ICD-9-CM, HCPCS, and CPT-4 coding systems in clear language for non-coding professionals. Readers receive general guidance on how to assign codes and appropriate modifiers, and tips to research basic coding questions.

Coding and You is written specifically to help non-coders—medical assistants, lab technicians, compliance professionals, case managers, nurses, finance directors, radiology technicians, and a host of other non-coding healthcare professionals—all of whom are responsible for the detailed documentation of services that result in accurate coding.

Sold in package of 10 copies, Coding and You is a cost-effective training tool for every department in hospitals, physician practices, and other healthcare settings.
