I was hoping someone who has already taken the AAPC ICD-10 course (the 16 hour online, go-at-your-own-pace one for $395) could help to clarify something for me.
I just called AAPC and spoke with a representative there who told me that when you purchase the 16 hour online course, that the Proficiency exam is "built in" to the course.
As I understand it, this is the exam that has 150 questions (as opposed to the 75 questions with a 3.5 hours timed exam).
The woman I spoke with told me that these 150 questions are basically put at the end of each chapter, and you simply answer these questions as you go through each section.
Sounds simple enough.
Then when I asked her if it shows you immediately if you got the answer wrong,
she said "yes"
THEN she told me that you DO have the option of re-answering the question if you DID get it wrong.
hmmm.
Sounds too good to be true.
Has anyone here taken the online course with AAPC yet?
I'm just a little unsure if what I was told was accurate. I may just call back and see if I get a different representative, and a different answer.
But thought I'd ask here on forums as well to see what my fellow coders have experienced with this.
Thank you!
