I would suggest going to www.codingcertification.org and look at the E/M product that they offer. They also have a Medical Coding DVD Blitz which is an amazing overview of all your coding and explains the E/M in simple, visual terms. If you get the online Blitz, the E/M training/review is part of the Blitz. Not expensive and you get a lot of information. Coding Certification.org works with the AAPC program.
Unless you are billing for just the surgical procedure or other specific procedures such as radiology or anesthesiology, for example, most visits will take place in an office,inpatient hospital, outpatient or observation in the hospital, nursing home, home, emergency department, etc....you will need to understand your E/M.
I hope this helps you.
