I am looking for a resource to learn, read and better understand the HCC coding. Can anyone recommend a book, class or other informative literature which will assist in better grasping this concept. I have contacted AAPC and they do not have such a course or book. Thanks!
 
Have you looked into these sources?:

https://www.aapc.com/certification/crc/
https://hmsa.com/portal/provider/Risk_Adjustment_in_Medicare_Advantage_Plans.pdf
https://www.cms.gov/CCIIO/Resources/Presentations/Downloads/hie-risk-adjustment-methodology.pdf
https://www.medirevv.com/blog/what-is-hcc-coding-understanding-todays-risk-adjustment-model - a little promotional, but still good information

Also, I work with HCC/Risk Adjustment on a daily basis. Feel free to message me any specific questions you might have.

If you have already shifted through these, I can look again for you. The CRC study guide has been pretty helpful in my opinion.

Hope this is helpful!
