ICD-10-CM/PCS Coding: A Map For Success (MyHealthProfessionsLab Series) Download Free (EPUB, PDF)
Featuring a four-color presentation and student-centered approach, this medical coding book references ICD-10-CM/ICD-10-PCS codes and offers a new approach to teaching this skill. ICD-10-CM/PCS CODING: A ROAD MAP is flexible in organization—appropriate for traditional, modular, linear, and wheel courses—and progressive in its numerous exercises of varying levels. Chapters are constructed around three basic coding skills (abstracting, assigning, and sequencing codes) so students get a strong foundation in these essential competencies. Guided examples teach the coding process, while mini-medical records help students learn how to identify and abstract pertinent information from medical documentation.

NOTE: As I read various reviews of this text, I am wondering if we are all reviewing the same book. (Sadly, would benefit from a "Review Moderator", since there is an unfortunate trend of persons posting negative reviews for delayed product shipments and for their own personal mistakes in having ordered the wrong item.)Anyway...I am extremely happy with this ICD-10 book! (At this low price, I purchased two copies...one for work and one for working at home.) This is NOT an ICD-10 reference manual, but is an INTRODUCTION to the principles and techniques of ICD coding, especially toward the impending 2014 conversion to 10.I am currently employed on an ICD-10 conversion for a major, west coast healthcare enterprise, and I have found this text to be very readable (unlike many scientific and technical books), well-illustrated, well-organized, accessible...and printed with a good, high-contrast fonts and colors (i.e., better visibility for a 40+ reader, unlike some texts that are printed with low-contrast shades of grey and blue).Any scientific text with this level of exactitude is going to have errata, especially with a first edition, and with a changing CMS standard. (Of course, the current ICD-10 Code standard itself has its share of errors, too!) Since I am not a Coding Specialist, I cannot speak to these errors..but, there are other reviewers that are informed about this.Good Luck!
I am using this book now. With web based courses, you have to rely more on your resources. The publisher sent the "answer key" to our instructor who made it available to us. Without fail, in every chapter, there are at least a 8 to 10 answers that are incorrect. - from the "answer key" (should have been called the "incorrect answer key". We end up spending too much time emailing each other to agree that the publisher has, yet again, steered us wrong. After this, we do understand the material better but, you can not count on the publisher-provided information. A lot of the book is very well done.
Great price for a book that will come in handy as we transition into ICD-10. I highly recommend this for the training aspect.
I have the misfortune of having this book and the accompanying MyLab for a coding course. Pearson ought tobe ashamed of themselves for putting this klunker out there. My instructor provided the class with 4 pages of errors in the book in nearly every chapter with the instruction to go through our books and make the changes ourselves. Some were simple spelling errors, others were substantive. When I bought this book I didn't think I'd have to edit it before I could use it. As for MyLab, if this is supposed to be a study aid of some kind; again it misses the mark. It includes for each chapter: a pretest, a test, a post test, homework, and mini tests, all of which lack answer keys providing answers so you can learn from your mistakes. If you're like me and stuck with this klunker as a course text, you have my sympathy. Otherwise, there are (I hope) better coding textbooks than this one out there.
It said it was a new book, it didn't look very new, and it didn't come everything, new book has the mylab access code it didn't have it.
Was not what I had anticipated. This book was more about how to code, not ICD 10. Think I read the description wrong???
not what i thought it would be , i will keep for my practice exercises, i stillhave more classes to go
too many things that were not correct in the book
