Given diagnoses, procedures and1
attributes of case, student will determine correct coding scheme (ICD10CM/ICD-10 PCS or CPT) to be utilized.3.Identify and describe the regulator of health care, including governmentand non-government entities. Given the health care setting, student willdetermine the appropriate regulator and or accrediting agency(s).4.Define and interpret test results, laboratory values, drug usage andtreatment in assigning diagnoses and procedures for coding using 3Msoftware and encoder. Given encoder, and other attributes of the case,student will properly identify diagnoses and procedures to code.5.Identify the abbreviations commonly used in coding and classification.Given list of abbreviations, student will correctly spell word or wordsrepresented by abbreviation.SCANS CompetenciesSCANS F9-Problem Solving, F8-Decision Making, F12-Reasoning, C-19- Appliestechnology to tasks, F-1-Reading; F-2- WritingLab RequirementsObjective of the Lab Assignments are to provide the student with hands ontraining and practice on important aspects of coding. After completion of theassignments below, the student will understand how to take a medical record andaccurately analyze the data and code it according to the disease process, labvalues and look for MCC/CC’s to enhance reimbursement.1. Drug Reference- A list of common drugs will be provided and the student willlist the drug, list the system it affects, the general use of the drug, the familyof the drug, and the indication(why prescribed).2. Abbreviations- The student with the help of an abbreviation book will look upcommon abbreviations given by the instructor. The abbreviations should betyped and maintained as a reference. Some of the abbreviations will be usedin tests and will not be interpreted on test day.3. HIT week project- The student will complete a group project to be displayedduring HIT week.2
