laureen: q#19: does practicode work in icd-9?and would this be a good practice for the certification exam? a: yes. practicode does work at icd-9 andit’s absolutely a good practice for the exam. it’s not the same as a timed mockboard exam where you have multiple choice questions but it’s definitely good practicefor coding, absolutely.
q#20: what happens with practicode if youput a wrong diagnosis code? a: alicia’s phone rings and she calls – no[laughs]. you basically get, just given a score, like when we did the one and we didn’tput any answers in it, it told us we had poor coding for that case.but it’ll give you the correct answer and
the rationale, and then you move on and youdo the next one and you just keep going. you learn from doing that. a lot of people are afraid to first startbecause they don’t want to be judged and they don’t want that score but it’s reallybetween you and the computer. unless you say, “hey, laureen or alicia, could you go inand look at some of the cases i coded?†we have that ability if you want us to andthat’s why we’re bundling it into our coding course so that we can give assignmentsto our students and go in and see how well they coded 10 cases in a particular specialty. q#21: this is great… please more e/m practicein the future.
Diabetic Foot Ulcer Icd 9 Code,
a: actually, i had one that i worked a coupleof hours on tonight. i’m trying to make it so that it’s more visual and you’reable to see how we’re arriving at the e/m level so we will do more of that. ruth suggestedthis as well and she picked a good case but i couldn’t quite get it to work well.
