Learn Beginning ICD-9-CM Coding Skills

AHA has discontinued the Workbooks for Beginning Coders as freestanding books and added that content to the Faye Brown ICD-9-CM Coding Hand Book 2009 without Answers.

Written by Janatha R. Ashton, RHIA, MS, with technical review by the Central Office on ICD-9-CM of the AHA.

  • Companion workbook for the ICD-9-CM Coding Handbook 2008
  • Basic and advanced exercises
  • Used in both certificate and HIM courses
  • Designed for academic and professional use

A proven exercise textbook that can also be used as an ancillary text for certificate program students, for self-instruction, or for reference. It contains hundreds of self-learning exercises based on real health records. The case summary exercise style requires students to consider the patient’s condition as well as all relevant information provided: medical history, reason for admission or encounter, laboratory results, procedures performed, and the diagnoses listed. In all exercises, students must apply pertinent coding principles and official coding guidelines in making code assignments and designating the principal diagnosis and procedure for each episode of care.

Both difficult and less challenging practice drills test the user’s coding skills in a variety of realistic health care settings—from the physician office to inpatient care.
