icd-9

Many thanks to Siousxe for sending me this awesome ICD-9 lookup tool that even works well with an iphone.  There are some other ICD-9 tools on-line and I'm such a nerd that I do it by hand, but this is well conceived and delivered.If only the AMA would actually help it's members by doing the same thing with CPT codes and RVU values.   

I've been erratic, I know, but that's life on the road (another broken hard drive!) and at home with two H1N1 kids.  Here's the latest:

PCC has opened our 2010 ICD-9 prep course for pediatrics to the public.

First order of business: ICD-9 changes for 2008 go into effect on 10/1 and there’s a doozy in there.  Here’s a copy of a message we’ve sent to PCC clients and I’ve left some of the PCC links in there, because anyone can use them and it’s easy to cut and paste!
