To
help an individual prepare for the Certified Professional Coder (CPC)
examination, the American Academy of Professional Coders has developed a Study
Guide. This allows the applicant to pretest before sitting for the national
certification exam. In each section of the Study Guide, pertinent principles are
followed by coding scenarios related to that section. The Study Guide is not an
introduction to coding but a review of coding concepts. Below is the outline of
the CPC Study Guide.
