icd-9, cpt, hcpcs?
Question: Not aware that anyone the difference between the 2007 coding books ICD9, CPT, and HCPCS, and previous editions? I am starting a medical billing and coding road soon, can we use the previous editions, because they are cheaper, or should I just buy the 2007 edition? Thank you!
Answer: I would get in 2006 editions. No codes will be changed, and if by chance the small prodedure or diagnosis you need is not in the printing of 2006, you may be able to get off the net. I've always used books that were published last year, and has never had a refractory.
Good luck!
