Covers hundreds of code, guideline and text changes. Improved comprehensive index revised and enhanced for 2013 to assist in locating codes related to a specific procedure, service, anatomic site, condition, synonym, eponym, or abbreviation. An expansion of the pathology and laboratory index entries include analytes and the elimination of redundancy throughout the rest of the index resulting in an index that is clearer and quicker to search. More anatomical and procedural illustrations improve coding accuracy and understanding of the anatomy and procedures being discussed. Five new illustrations provide more information for those coding from the Cardiovascular System subsection of Surgery. New listing of proprietary test names for multi-analyte assays puts you ahead of the curve by informing you of existing tests that have yet to meet all of the necessary requirements to be placed among the Category I codes. E/M reference tables summarize the requirements for reporting E/M services thereby helping to select and validate proper E/M coding. Coding tips throughout each section improve your understanding of the nuances of the code set. Section-specific table of contents provides users with a tool to navigate more effectively through each section codes.
