Hello.
I am preparing to take my CPC exam on Jan 19; 2019. The thing is I am already half way done with annotating; bubbling and highlighting my 2018 cpt manuals and because the CPT updates are just now being updated and I am able to have access to the new annotations for the 2019 CPT manual through the club; I am noticing that there are new codes. I was wondering would it be okay for me to notate in my 2018 cpt manual those new codes so that when I sit for my exam I am aware that there are new codes in case I have a question on the exam that may have new codes implemented. Would this be allowed or would I be able to sit for the exam. I am aware that I may be at a slight disadvantage by not using the 2019 CPT manual; and im okay with that as long as I feel that I am aware of the changes. Any advice would be so greatly appreciated. Thank you very much.
And also does anyone know when the CPC exam tests are actually rewritten with new questions?
