I am a little rusty and need to brush up on a few areas and my time keeping. I missed 2 out of 10. I have been watching your videos over the past month. This really helped me to grasp where I am and how soon I may be ready to take the exam. I would really appreciate if you did more of these. They are extremely helpful. Thank you so much 🙌🏽.

Could you let us know which book you found the anatomical illustration of the heart in for question 4? I feel like those illustrations could be really helpful during the CPC exam None of my books have a nicely detailed one like yours, but i also have the 2022 cpt book and ahima versions of the ICD books. I'm waiting for my new AMA verisons to come in the mail along with my 2024 CPT.

Hello, my name is Tania, I did take the coding course but I haven’t taken the exam, because I am not sure of being prepared because I don’t understand much about the assessment part to codify it.

I took my test, first attempt on Sunday and failed. I was very nervous and ran out of time.

So, which cpc certification exam prep book with practice exams, would you get?

[@samanthaehlers4049]

I have the cpt 2024 professional edition and the ICD-10-CM my program through the US career institute states they’d provide all the books required however I never recieved a HCPCS are those codes in either of the other books?

[@lindawilson8839]

just discovered you. great videos!!

[@MaryRecio]

Will be taking my CPC Exam in September 2024, your videos have help me a lot.. Butterflys in my stomach, but I know I will able to remember your videos and will pass. Another question I have 2023 books, will I be able to use those, or should I get the 2024 books.

[@ContempoCoding]

The exams get a refresh every January 1st to reflect the current calendar year's code sets. So, even though ICD-10-CM codes might update on October 1st, those changes won't show up in the exam until the new year rolls around. 🗓️ Feel free to use last year's books, but just know you might be at a slight disadvantage. For the full scoop, check out AAPC's official guidance: www.aapc.com/certification/faq.aspx " What year's books should I use? All AAPC exams are based on the current calendar year’s code sets, so we strongly suggest you use the current year’s books. The previous calendar year’s books may be used on an exam, but you would be at obvious disadvantage doing so. The upcoming year’s books are not allowed for exam use. The exams are updated every January for the new code sets."

Anyone know if the Preppy course has actual good helpful lectures? My friend and I are absolutely BUMMED trying to do the CPC prep course through the local university only to find out their "lectures" are 5-7 minutes long, 10 years old, and leave us more confused than without it, which sucks since books aren't included, CEUs aren't included, exam attempts aren't included, and we receive little to no help from the instructor. We finally got to the coding part of the class with using the guidelines and we are so confused

Hi, do you recommend reading the entire question first? Or look up the codes first? Also when do you recommend looking in index for a code than just jumping to the code it self?
