Overview
Codes change yearly! We take seriously our obligation to provide you with accurate and up-to-date instruction. This program is updated for the FY 2026 code set.
Comprehensive Inpatient Cardiac Procedure Coding provides an all-inclusive approach to coding cardiac operative reports. Learn to code these complex inpatient procedures with the unique perspective of nationally recognized ICD-10-PCS coding expert Lynn Kuehn.
ICD-10-PCS: Cardiac Procedure Coding enables coders to visualize and understand complicated 3-D cardiac structures and then accurately and completely code the intricate surgical procedures performed.
- Understand and visualize complex three-dimensional cardiac procedures in order to code completely and accurately.
- Identify the code format, system structure, and design of cardiac procedure codes in ICD-10-PCS.
- Understand and apply the cardiac-specific Official Guidelines for Coding and Reporting of ICD-10-PCS codes.
- Learn to identify procedure details that support the assignment of the root operations.
- Apply the definitions of the devices and qualifiers unique to cardiac procedures.
- Given a case scenario, select the necessary statements to code and apply Official Guidelines for Coding and Reporting to support an accurate code assignment.
- Realistic workplace Coding Quality Measure: 90% performance on final assessment required to earn CEU
Practical Coding Experience: Inpatient Cardiac Procedures provides hands-on coding practice coupled with detailed guidance on correct code assignment.
