Since the CPC exam covers so many topics, it's easy to get overwhelmed in the preparation stages. Here are a couple ways of to cope with this large, intimidating exam. During the exam, you'll spend the most time with the CPT manual. While there are some questions on ICD-10-CM codes and HCPCS, there are far more questions that relate to the CPT code set, so it's good to focus your study efforts there. Know the manual back to front, and be comfortable navigating it and using its numerous appendices. Most people take the exam only after they've been working in coding for a little while (to be certified, the CPC requires a passing score and two years of professional experience, or the educational equivalent). If you've amassed that experience, you should be relatively familiar with medical terminology and anatomy and physiology. Still, it's a very good idea to brush up with this through flash cards or review courses. There will be questions on the exam that explicitly reference medical or anatomical terminology (questions like, "What kind of joint is this?"), but having a strong medical vocabulary will help you in deciphering other questions as well. Once you've studied up, be sure to take advantage of as many practice exams as you can. Treat these exams like real tests: study extensively for them, time yourself as you take them, and then note which questions, and more importantly what type of questions, you regularly get wrong. On your first test, did you struggle with the Anesthesia codes? Go back over that section. Were you sloppy with your ICD-10-CM codes? Review the ICD-10-CM manual. A number of private companies have practice CPC exams, but the AAPC's practice exams are probably your best bet. Don't treat practice exams as formalities or wastes of time. Many practice exams can be easier than the actual exam, but you should still take them seriously. You should try and score at least an 80% on a practice exam before you take the real CPC exam. TAKING THE TEST When you take the CPC exam, you're allowed to bring in each of the code manuals (the ICD, CPT, and HCPCS manuals). You're allowed to have notes in the margins of these manuals, but these notes can't contain any test-specific information. You are also not allowed to tape anything into these manuals. It's a good idea to mark the important or frequently used sections of your code manuals. The CPT manual, for instance, comes with a number of tabs you can place in the book to mark certain important places. Use these to mark off where code sections begin (like the Surgery or Medicine sections in the CPT manual), and where to find certain appendices. When you're taking the CPC exam, you'll be asked to perform though you were coding at your regular coding job, so set up your manual in the way that makes the most sense for you. Also be aware that each manual has loads of helpful information beyond the codes. The CPT manual has a number of diagrams of the human body, including illustrations of the ocular system and adnexa, the musculoskeletal system, the nervous system and much more. Mark these pages and refer to them during the test if you're stumped on a question pertaining to anatomical terminology.

The CPC exam is comprised of 150 multiple-choice questions. The test takes five hours and 40 minutes to complete, making it fairly rigorous. There are two breaks in the middle of the test. The CPC exam costs $300 to take, but only $260 if the test-taker is a member of the AAPC (annual dues are $125 for individuals and $70 for students).The CPC exam thoroughly tests a coder's grasp of the entire coding process, from medical terminology to code sets and beyond. Per the AAPC's website, the CPC exam covers 24 subject areas, including anesthesia, radiology, and medicine.You should recognize a number of these (like Evaluation and Management, or Radiology) as sections of the CPT code manual. Others, like Anatomy and Physiology, are parts of the coder's everyday skill set.You should note that the questions on the exam are not divided or identified by the topic they are related to. That is, questions on the CPC exam will test you on all of the above 24 fields of medical coding, but they won't outright say, "This is an anesthesia question." Instead they'll just ask you about anesthesia, or surgery, or human anatomy.During the test, you'll be presented with a number of tests cases pertaining to the practice of coding. These test case questions will present you with a condensed medical report and ask you to select the correct set of codes from the answers below.For instance, a test case question might read:"Sarah, a 45-year-old patient, visits the doctor and presents symptoms including a sore throat, swollen lymph nodes, and a fever. After performing a rapid strep test, the doctor confirms a diagnosis of streptococcal sore throat. The doctor prescribes an Amoxicillin as an antibiotic. Which of the following are the correct codes for this diagnosis, procedure and prescription?"There are also general knowledge questions, like "Which types of joints are synovial?" that don't have an attached test case. That question's related to the musculoskeletal system, but the test won't come right out and say so. You'll have to rely on your knowledge of code sets, medical terminology, best practices, and the coding process in general to pass.Individuals who earn a score of 70 percent or better (105 correct questions) will pass the CPC exam. If you fail your first test, you are allowed one free retake.
