Synopsis
The ICD-9-CM is designed for the classification of patient morbidity and mortality information for statistical purposes and is also used by health care providers to substantiate the need for patient treatment. This workbook offers practitioners of all levels a comprehensive introduction to working with this coding protocol. It opens with an overview of medical terminology and the coding process. Then specific guidelines for coding are presented in six sections corresponding to types of illnesses (i.e., infectious diseases, mental disorders, etc.). The Windows- and Macintosh-compatible CD-ROM contains PowerPoint presentations as well as quizzes and midterm and final exams. Annotation ©2005 Book News, Inc., Portland, OR (booknews.com)
