Specifically the person asked: “I’m finding it hard to understand the references to ‘sections’ in the guidelines in the ICD-10-CM. Example: Hypertension, transient, Section 1.C.9.a.7. or Section 1.C.18.g.” A: I know. It’s like a legal document. It’s a little scary at first, so we’ll break it down and show you how to do that. What I thought would be good is this could be an opportunity to show you what our CCO club looks like inside because that’s where our club members get access to our BHAT™ Cave document. Our BHAT™ Cave is our bubble, highlight, & annotate technique guideline videos that we have that help people to mark up their manuals. Let me show you how that works.
