JustCoding's Online Clinical Scenarios: 2020 ICD-10-PCS Online Edition
Real-world coding simulation to sharpen your coding skills
Completely updated for the fiscal year 2020 ICD-10-CM/PCS code sets!
JustCoding’s Online Clinical Scenarios: 2020 ICD-10-PCS Edition provides an opportunity for coders to practice and refine their skills in a hands-on way by using a wide range of real-life case scenarios. Coders will determine the correct fiscal year 2020 ICD-10-CM and ICD-10-PCS codes to report for each case scenario based on provided documentation, evidence of sufficient medical necessity, and any conditions present that would allow for MS-DRG capture.
A full answer key with coding rationale for each case allows coders to self-audit and find immediate answers to their questions. When applicable, cases will also include references to guidance from the 2020 Official Guidelines for Coding and Reporting, Coding Clinic, and the ICD-10-CM and ICD-10-PCS manuals.
This course will help coders by:
- Simulating real-world coding by actively reporting ICD-10-CM and ICD-10-PCS codes for each case scenario
- Providing answers for every case with rationales from experts who explain why certain codes should or should not be reported
- Giving a refresher on certain standards, bundling policies, and coding guidelines necessary for compliance
What makes our online training course different?
Adjustable difficulty — Each case is available in beginner and advanced levels, allowing users to set the amount of challenge they are comfortable with. The beginner level provides additional details such as the code descriptions while the advanced level provides only the scenario, leaving code selection completely up to the user.<
Easier distribution — This course allows managers to delegate cases to be done and you can track your team’s progress as they work through the cases.
Instant feedback — Instead of referring to an answer key, our interface allows you to easily see whether your answer is correct upon submission.
