Fran Jurcak, RN, MSN, CCDS, Author
Laurie L. Prescott, MSN, RN, CCDS, CDIP, Reviewer

In 2016, those sitting for the Certified Clinical Documentation Specialist (CCDS) exam face the biggest changes to the test yet. The updated exam has been expanded from 120 to 140 items and has a brand-new section on quality of care. In addition, it incorporates updates to the Official ICD-10-CM Guidelines for Coding and Reporting as well as critical Coding Clinic ICD-10 guidance related to documentation and querying.

Also, this year the CCDS Exam Study Guide comes with an online practice exam, allowing prospective examinees to practice and get instant results—just like the certification exam offers.

$125

The CCDS Exam Study Guide, Third Edition will:

  • Help candidates determine whether they are ready to take the CCDS exam
  • Give qualified candidates the confidence they need to succeed
  • Provide sample questions for self-assessment
  • Deliver proven test-taking strategies and “day of the test” tips
