“Every year the coding team and I look forward to these Code Update courses.” — Shelli Harding, CCS, Coding Manager, CharterCARE Health Partners
“I completed the FY2022 CM update, evaluation and assessment today. The lessons were excellent. I like the format, describing the new codes and clinical aspects, including the new Excludes 1 and 2 notes and everything else you included. It was a comprehensive review that coders and others interested in coded data would benefit from completing the lessons.” – Lou Ann Schraffenberger, MBA, RHIA, CCS, CCS-P, FAHIMA, Co-author, Basic ICD-10-CM and ICD-10-PCS Coding
“Love your tips for making use of the index much easier. Thanks for sharing!” — Annette Barnes, RHIA, Health Information Manager, Black Mountain Neuro-medical Treatment Center
“I always purchase the AHA coding update webinar and did again this year. In addition, I also purchased the Libman Coding Update for a quick comparison. Although the AHA webinar is always informative, the Libman course was more detailed, more in-depth, and more interesting. It was money well spent. I learned more information especially about changes to the Index and Tabular Listing conventions. Lynn Kuehn is an excellent speaker who explains things well and gives you the context of the disease process/change. I will invest in this course again next year.” — Joan L. Usher, BS, RHIA, HCS-D, ACE, President JLU Health Record Systems
“This was by far the best webinar I’ve ever done, thank you.” — Lori England, Coder (comment posted to Lynn Kuehn’s ICD-10-CM and ICD-10-PCS Code Updates for April 1, 2023)
“I like the education. This is my second year of purchasing this packet. I really like how videos and their links are included for future reference. Lynn provides the tables she is talking about, the who/what/why, and examples. All great information.” — Anonymous, on the ICD-10-CM/PCS Updates Bundle
“I think that providing education in measured doses and at the right time is best given how intricate coding has become. For annual coding updates, we found Libman Education to be an excellent resource for online learning that provides just the right amount to highlight what is important without inundating coders with information.” — Director of Coding and Clinical Documentation Integrity
“This afternoon I enjoyed my first tour through the ICD-10-CM lessons. What a marvelous educational experience! I will review again before I attempt the assessment.” — Lou Ann Schraffenberger, MBA, RHIA, CCS, CCS-P, FAHIMA, author Basic ICD-10-CM and ICD-10-PCS Coding
“I enjoyed the ICD-10 Update course. I liked the fact that I could do it at my leisure. I also liked the quizzes at the end of each chapter. The hands on gets me to learn.” — Cindy S.
“It was great!!” — Janine D., CCS-P, CPMA, on Lynn’s ICD-10 CM Code Update course
“I truly mean it, your Libman module is very, very good. A lot of the content was not easy, but you have explained it well. They were very thorough and complete, and your examples were super!” — John N., RHIA
“I enjoyed the ICD-10 Update course. I liked the fact that I could do it at my leisure. I also liked the quizzes at the end of each chapter. The hands on gets me to learn.” — Cindy S.
“It did a very good job of explaining the ICD 10 update.” – Phil T.
“I think that the course covered the material well. I enjoyed the videos and diagrams as they made the procedures easier to understand. I think the course was the correct length because there is a lot to cover. I do like that the course was interactive with quizzes rather than just a lecture.”
“I did like the illustrations and found them to be very helpful. Overall, I really like the course so far.”
“I am so glad I took this course [on the ICD-10-CM code update]. Due to an illness I was not able to attend any of the training offered by my place of employment. I do believe, after talking with co-workers during my illness, that this course was more beneficial than anything they received. It went into more detail and was explained so well. Thank you for helping me.”
“Any of Libman Education’s courses are worth time and cost. Always walk away with a useable, clarity or reinforcement of subject matter.”
