Coding Instructor's Rating
I teach Medical Coding and I use this textbook. It is an excellent text book. I am glad the answers to the exercises are not included. I assign the students approximately 5 exercises per night and we discuss the answers in class the following day. The students are encouraged to justify why they chose the answer they chose and this leads to some interesting discussions and insights. I have had students take my course using this text and then take and pass the AAPC Coding Exam. I believe it prepares them well for the AAPC certified professional coder exam.

Thumbs Up for this Useful Book
As preparation for the CCS examination, I find this book to provide excellent background material on the CPT classification system and outpatient medical coding. I'm in the beginning stages of using the text; but I am immediately impressed. It seems logical, thorough, and well-organized. While the coding exercises are an aid, it is the supporting documentation that sets this book apart from other review books I have been using. I give it a high recommendation to those of you who are searching for a comprehensive, up-to-date resource.
