Can anyone suggest what would be a good reference book to bring to this exam? I will be taking it soon and they allow one extra reference of your choice and I was just wondering what anyone would recommend.

The Ingenix Emergency Medicine Codding Companion has good procedure descriptions. It isn't a primary source so if there is a difference with CPT Descriptions, CPT would be the primary source. But it's good overall.

Thanks for your reply...but I was hoping for something a little less expensive, as my hospital is small and doesn't supply anything other than the basic tools of the trade, you know?

Thanks Rachel, I would really appreciate it.
I wanted to ask you about the format of the test if you don't mind. I am hearing 3 different things about it. Is it all coding charts, or is it 3 different sections of three different types of information (such as terminology, etc), or is it 90% coding charts and 10% answering other types of questions? I keep getting conflicting information.
