Medical Coding By Jen Study Guide 2025

Medical Coding By Jen Study Guide for 2025 1st Edition

 

This study guide takes the major concepts needed to know for any medical coding certification exam and turns it into a more bullet point condensed version. 

 

Midpoint in the study guide will show you some areas of the manuals color codes I use with examples. Then I will go over the key areas one more time in an even more condensed version.

 

Sprinkled in are practice questions with answers and rationales over key areas with information placed into word maps and charts in hopes that this will help all types of learners. 

 

I hope this 1st version helps and please let me know any suggestions for revisions you have for further versions.
