I'm instructing ICD-9-CM to a class of non-coders that will be seeking front office jobs and am hoping someone can provide me with a list of the most common diagnoses for the specialty. I have them for one month and can't cover all of it! I would be very grateful for any help!

Focus on Diseases of the Genitourinary System (these are male and female related) and then Complications of Pregnancy, Childbirth and Purerperium. Also V codes related to preventive care. Those are the most commonly used codes in OB/Gyn. If you teach them how to use the Index and then go to the Tabular that will be of the most benefit!
