ICD-10 Is NOT Required For The 2014 Certification Exam For New Coders

If you are a new coder looking to get your certification in 2014 take a deep breath! AAPC is not requiring you to be tested on ICD-10.

ICD-9 is what is currently being tested for certification and the exam is still 150 questions and you still have 5 hours and forty minutes to complete it.

If you are currently certified (excluding CIRCC, CPPM, CPCO) you have until Sept 30th, 2015 to take an ICD-10CM proficiency exam and pass to retain your certification.
