With all due respect, they are not trying to "trick you," they are testing your knowledge of ICD-10 guidelines.
Have to agree with others. Why would you say they are trying to trick you when they want to see if you understand the guidelines?I went to the Boot Camp in Texas and took my test. I was stressed out almost like I was taking the CPC again, but it really was not that bad. The biggest recommendation is to be familiar with the guidelines. They will try to trick you with anemia related to cancer and which is coded first in that scenario for example. This is covered in the guidelines, but I made a notation in my tabular to remind me which one comes first to help with the time frame. The drug abuse, dependence and use is another area that has changed which was included in my test. Like I stated, be familiar with the guideline changes and the combo codes that are available in ICD-10. Good luck.
