Now is the time to start incorporating ICD-10 into your classroom!
Elsevier is here to help you:
Learn from the experts.
Webinars from Carol J. Buck and Lynne Miller give you insight into learning, planning, and integrating ICD-10 into your curriculum. Learn more
Create your core text transition plan.
Elsevier’s core annual coding texts are incorporating more coverage of ICD-10-CM/PCS each year in phases. For 2015 editions, there will be equal coverage of both the ICD-9 and ICD-10 code sets.
This enables you to teach students as much or as little ICD-10 as you want, and students can learn both ICD-9 and ICD-10 during the transition phase without buying additional ICD-10 textbooks.
