Re: CCS Pass Alerlt: Congratulations to Judy W who just passed her CCS exam
by Jill Gr, CPC-A - WOW! That was very helpful information for me. Thank you for sharing it. I am putting everything I have got into passing this test and am hopeful I can do it without the Codemasters class. Thanks for the heads up on Nelly Chisen Leon's book. Sounds like that will be a good book to invest in. I also felt the same way you did about DRGs and APCs as you did. I do not feel confident in what I know, and plan on tracking down some more info. I took the online practice exam that goes along with the AHIMA exam Prep book. My weakest domain by far was the regulatory guidelines and reporting requirements for outpatient. Planning on reading through my CPT to refresh my memory.
Thanks again for all the helpful info, Judy, and GOODLUCK job hunting!
