ICD-10 "Hospitalist" exam?

[Kinster]

Good afternoon!

I have an online test for a potential employer and it's entitled "ICD-10: Module for Hospitalist Part 1" and "ICD-10: Module for Hospitalist Part 2"

What would I focus on for Hospitalist coding?
Thank you

I googled hospitalist coding and I came up with this article from AAPC: http://static.aapc.com/a3c7c3fe-6fa1-4d67-8534-a3c9c8315fa0/8521a02e-1058-40d3-ae7f-f8dfcad0b899/fa25a375-1e89-46c3-9424-fca302bc6464.pdf. Hope it helps!

I think they are testing you on the procedure codes and using ICD-10 instead of ICD-9 on the test - I don't think it means the focus of the test is ICD-10 coding.
