Advanced ICD-9 Coding

Additional Information
Every day you use your diagnosis coding book, but do you know WHY you look in Volume 2 first and then Volume 1?

What tools are available for sequencing of multiple codes? All these questions and more, are a part of the material. This program is for the experienced coder looking to learn something new in addition to refreshing their skills.
