• Practice exams on the Evolve website allow you to assess strengths and weaknesses and develop a plan for focused study, including a Pre-Exam to be taken prior to studying, the same exam again as a Post-Exam to be taken after your review, and a Final Exam that simulates the experience of taking the actual physician coding exam.
• Answers and rationales to the Pre-/Post- and Final Exams are available on Evolve.
• Netter’s Anatomy illustrations help you understand anatomy and how it affects coding.
• Real-world coding reports (cleared of any patient identifiers) simulate the reports that you will encounter on the job and challenge you to apply key coding principles to actual cases.
• Success Strategies section in the text guides you step-by-step through the entire exam process.
• Concise outline format helps you access information quickly and study more efficiently.
• Colorful design and illustrations make study and review easier and more engaging.
