And one thing’s really great about coders, which if you’re a coder you already know this, but it’s a community and everybody knows that things are changing and you’re always learning so they’re very receptive to encourage and help people find things. I’ve got some people that I guess, you call them mentors or fellow coders that are one has been a coder forever and did lots of billing and another one is a compliance office; man if I have a question about something, I send them an email and they’re great to give me good advice.

OK, so do I want to hit this answers thing, and that will get up?

Alicia: OK. I think Laureen highlights them when she’s done, or what does she do, take them out? I can’t remember.

Alicia: OK. I see Ruth there, in there.

Q #1: When will the AAPC CPC certification exam be switching to ICD 10?

A: This is the way it works for the AAPC, it’s different with AHIMA. So, you need to contact AHIMA if you’re going to get a CCS. [Ed. Note/correction: But for the AAPC, on October 1, 2013, your proficiency exam in ICD-10 became available.] If you’re taking the CPC in 2014 you will not test in ICD-10, you will start testing in ICD-10 on January 1, 2015. All the new tests that are created for 2015 will be in ICD-10. 2014 all the tests are already created and there’s multiple versions like A-B-C-D-E-F - I don’t know how many letters, and they will remain in ICD-9 until the end of the year. [Ed. Note/correction: However, you have available to you as of, October 1, 2013, I think it’s 75-question proficiency exam which is not going to be difficult for you guys to take.] Don’t sweat it. You have questions about it, put questions in our forum and several people can give you some information about it. Laureen and I have already taken it and passed it and so have some other people, they offer it to instructors early.
