Book excerpt: When it comes to getting a coding certification, the American Association of Professional Coder (AAPC)'s Certified Professional Coder (CPC) exam is one of the most well known. You'll need to be highly prepared for a test as intense and extensive as the CPC exam, which takes almost six hours to complete. In this section, we'll teach you the basics of the exam and provide you with valuable study techniques and test-taking strategies. We'll also go over each of the 24 sections that the CPC exam focuses on, meaning you'll know what to expect when it comes time to get certified.There are many areas of study that you must have a solid understanding of in order to successfully pass the CPC. It is important not to get overwhelmed once you open the test booklet -- just remember to focus on coding conventions and guidelines and don't get sidetracked in the minutia.The following list is a mini breakdown of the areas of study you should ensure you have a thorough understanding of prior to sitting for the exam:Medical terminology: Prefixes/suffixes used for naming medical conditions/proceduresHCPCS: Alphanumeric designated codes that identify supplies/drugs/temporary codesModifiers: Two-digit suffix appended to the end of a code to indicate additional services/providers/statusesICD-10-CM: Diagnosis code reporting for physician and outpatient, coding conventions and guidelines for reporting of illnesses/conditions/accidents/injuries, and moreE&M (Evaluation and Management Visit Codes): Know what visit codes are used in each outpatient or inpatient setting.Anesthesia Section: Understand the types of anesthesia -- general/regional/local anesthesia/conscious sedation.Radiology Section: X-rays/diagnostic imaging/MRI/PET scan/ ultrasound/nuclear medicinePath & Lab Section: Testing and identification of disease/infections/etiologyMedicine Section: Covers various procedures for all other medical specialtiesBody Systems:Integumentary SystemMusculoskeletal SystemRespiratory SystemCardiovascular SystemDigestive SystemUrinary SystemReproductive SystemEndocrine/Nervous SystemEye/Ear System
Download or read book CPC Exam Questions 300 Questions with Full Answer Key and Rationale written by The Coders Choice LLC and published by . This book was released on 2018-02-27 with total page 89 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The CPC exam is comprised of 150 multiple-choice questions. The test takes five hours and 40 minutes to complete, making it fairly rigorous. There are two breaks in the middle of the test. The CPC exam costs $300 to take, but only $260 if the test-taker is a member of the AAPC (annual dues are $125 for individuals and $70 for students).The CPC exam thoroughly tests a coder's grasp of the entire coding process, from medical terminology to code sets and beyond. Per the AAPC's website, the CPC exam covers 24 subject areas, including anesthesia, radiology, and medicine.You should recognize a number of these (like Evaluation and Management, or Radiology) as sections of the CPT code manual. Others, like Anatomy and Physiology, are parts of the coder's everyday skill set.You should note that the questions on the exam are not divided or identified by the topic they are related to. That is, questions on the CPC exam will test you on all of the above 24 fields of medical coding, but they won't outright say, "This is an anesthesia question." Instead they'll just ask you about anesthesia, or surgery, or human anatomy.During the test, you'll be presented with a number of tests cases pertaining to the practice of coding. These test case questions will present you with a condensed medical report and ask you to select the correct set of codes from the answers below.For instance, a test case question might read:"Sarah, a 45-year-old patient, visits the doctor and presents symptoms including a sore throat, swollen lymph nodes, and a fever. After performing a rapid strep test, the doctor confirms a diagnosis of streptococcal sore throat. The doctor prescribes an Amoxicillin as an antibiotic. Which of the following are the correct codes for this diagnosis, procedure and prescription?"There are also general knowledge questions, like "Which types of joints are synovial?" that don't have an attached test case. That question's related to the musculoskeletal system, but the test won't come right out and say so. You'll have to rely on your knowledge of code sets, medical terminology, best practices, and the coding process in general to pass.Individuals who earn a score of 70 percent or better (105 correct questions) will pass the CPC exam. If you fail your first test, you are allowed one free retake.GETTING CERTIFIEDOnce you pass the CPC exam, you are not officially certified by the AAPC until you fulfill a few other criteria. In order to complete a CPC certification, you must become a member of the AAPC. Certification is also limited to coders with two years of professional experience or those willing to complete an apprentice program.As such, the CPC exam is recommended for individuals who have already started their coding career. That won't prevent us from going over the basics of this important exam.
