I am looking for any suggestions about how to code for HCPCS and E&M? I haven't really had any problems with coding up to this point.  Now I feel like I am completely lost.  Any help is greatly appreciated.  Thank you.

That's normal at first. There is a 'settling-in' period when starting that section. My best advice is to just keep going.  You will NEVER go wrong by viewing, reviewing, and re-reviewing the Guidelines while you are waiting for the light to come on. I love hearing about those 'Aha! moments that people have when they thought they would never 'get it' but suddenly did.

You're not alone, Michelle!  I think that was one of the most difficult parts of the coding course thus far.  It's not easy, but like Linda said...keep going, keep studying, keep re-reading...you'll get there!  Somehow you pass the CPC eventually, so you do get enough knowledge crammed in to your brain to succeed!  Keep up the hard work!!
