I feel this text will be useful in helping instructors and students
learn the material for ICD-10 and the transition that will occur.
Most of the schools are going to have to start teaching the
material to the students in the school year starting in 2011 to
have them ready for May graduation in 2013. Betty HaarProgram

The authors cover the concepts in a manner that students understand
and the text book is very user friendly. Beginners in coding are
very overwhelmed and worried that they will not be able to grasp
the topic. The text breaks each body system down in a very
understandable and efficient manner in layman's terms. I feel this
book will continue to be useful to both instructors and students as
this transition occurs. Kathleen O'Gorman, BS, CPCLead Instructor
