There are links at www.cms.gov, aapc, ingenix has some great books, draft books on 10, along with books that explain it all. Google ICD-10 and other resources will pop up. Just make sure they are credible resources. And pay attention to the AAPC website as they have plans for educational training also.
Enjoy!
Enjoy!

ICD-10 Training - St. Cloud, MN Local Chapter information
At our May MAYnia St. Cloud Local Chapter meeting we listened to the audio conference from AHIMA - Understanding and Using ICD-10-CM. It was a great resource for us. I also copied a few pages from the ICD-10-CM Index on the NCHS website and from the Tabular so that we could actually code a few diagnoses.
We were happy with the results of the meeting. We had several guests that came to learn more about AAPC, certification, and to help ease some of their fears of ICD-10-CM. I am happy to report that all of the guests made a comment that they felt better about the transition to ICD-10-CM.
Our Educational Officer Megan Norling put together a list of some great ICD-10 websites that you can check out for more information on ICD-10. I added some ICD-10-CM & ICD-10-PCS Facts to the document. Check it out for more information on ICD-10. (Sorry - the Facts information did not copy and paste real well).
