This plastic-spiral-bound guide to the Healthcare Common Procedures Coding System (HCPCS) is designed to meet the needs of students preparing for a career in medical coding. The sections of the book present the HCPCS 2009 Index, the 2009 Table of Drugs, the CMS HCPCS Level II National Modifiers, and listings of codes for various supplies and equipment, medical and dental procedures, drug therapies, and behavioral health treatment. Color photos and illustrations are included. Icons note features such as special coverage instructions for certain codes and procedures not covered or valid by Medicare, and color coded pages make it easy to find material for reference. The paper cover includes a built-in bookmark. Buck is retired as program director of Medical Secretary Programs at Northwest Technical College, Minnesota.
