ICD-10-CM and ICD-10-PCS Coding Handbook, with Answers, 2020 Rev. Ed. PDF
The ICD-10-CM and ICD-10-PCS Coding Handbook by Nelly Leon-Chisen is a comprehensive manual on ICD and PCS coding. This book covers topics that are related to the areas of business planning, finance, information systems, supply chains, and human resources. It is an ideal reference for professionals and non-professionals alike, since the information covered in this book is applicable to all fields. It is important to note though, that this book is only informative and not legal or other technical information.
One of the topics that this book tackles is the use of data compression methods. There are four primary types of data compression: lossless compression, loss-limited compression, compressible compression, and data duplication. There are four chapters that this book addresses specifically: The Fundamentals of Data Compression Methods, Data Quality and the ICD-10-CM Coding Handbook, The Management Information Format (MIF), and The International Standard Organization's International Standard Generalized Data Model (ISDM), and The Numeric Standard (NSD). As you may expect, the information described in this chapter is directly relevant to the management of ICD and PCS projects. In fact, it is even referenced by the NSD in its glossary.
Throughout the book, there are numerous examples demonstrating various scenarios that are relevant to business requirements. While some of the examples are technical in nature, others are more practical in nature. This adds an impressive level of practicality to this text. Furthermore, the author makes it clear that the primary focus of this book is the application of information technology (IIT) to business information systems and the management of these systems.
