DESCRIPTION:
great price, fast shipping Shelly Roettger Exactly what I needed for class, great price, fast shipping.. Poor Value; Nothing New Brett J. Prince This is basically a word-for-word copy of the last 4 years of CPT books from the same authors and publishers. Unless your specialty has undergone significant change/revision, this is basically an overpriced, unnecessary, and bulky waste of paper and time. Most new codes are easily available free on -line. Buyer beware.. CPT 2009 Professional Edition This is the only book that I use for CPT coding. The Professional Edition's Guidelines are color coded in each section. There are numerous pictures/diagrams to help you understand procedure coding.I have used the CPT Professional Edition since I started coding in 1998. I am very pleased with this product and continue to order my new edition every year.
