“Medical What It Is and How It Works provides an overview of the evolution of medical coding and all the various coding systems, how they relate, and how they function. Coding is a very complicated process. There is ICD-9-CM, soon to be ICD-10-CM, HCPCS, CPT, and APCs. All are different depending on the setting and vary by specialty and by type of service.” All health care managers need a basic knowledge of the process that funds their operations. This is the first book that presents the big picture for the non-coder in clear, practical language. For those contemplating a career in the coding field, this book is ideal as a basic orientation.
