Evaluate coders current understanding of the changes in ICD-10 CM and ability to accurately apply the ICD-10 codes to scenarios.
This is a pre-test only for the "Improving Accuracy in ICD-10-CM Coding for Home Health Care" course. The pre-test is designed for individuals who have been through ICD-10 training that wish to gauge their understanding of the changes implemented with ICD-10 CM codes as well as their ability to accurately apply them. The pre-test may also be used by home care agencies to evaluate coders understanding of ICD-10. PLEASE NOTE: There are no contact hours awarded for this pre-test.
For individuals that prefer to review the changes implemented with ICD-10-CM or practice application of the codes before testing their knowledge, please skip this pre-test and proceed directly to the Improving Accuracy in ICD-10 CM Coding class.
This pretest consists of one quiz. Participants must have access to an ICD-10 CM Code book in order to look up codes during the pre-test. If an ICD-10 CM code book is not available, participants may also use the CMS website link to access codes online: https://www.cms.gov/Medicare/Coding/ICD10/2015-ICD-10-CM-and-GEMs.html

Individuals that score 80% or better will be issued a certificate of completion for the pretest that indicates the score achieved. PLEASE NOTE: This certificate is not appropriate for professional continuing education requirements.
