ICD-9-CM 2009 Volumes 1 & 2 Professional for Physicians (ICD-9-CM Expert for Physicians, Vol. 1 & 2)
The ICD-9-CM book by Contexo / MMI is my number one book of choice for diagnosis coding and I highly recommended it to my clients and students. As a 30 year veteran in healthcare consulting and education, I find it to be well organized and anotated, has thicker pages with vibrant print, and is easier to teach from. I've not found another ICD-9-CM reference book that has the full page glossy anatomical illustrations either. This is a definite plus for those preparing for various coding certification exams. For the low price and excellent quality, my students, clients and I love it! --Robin Linker, CPC, CPC-H, CCS-P, CPC-P,MCS-P, CHC
