Hey.
I'm taking Cpc exam for 3rd time in December. I read on Facebook to join. Also read about BHAT technique but don't understand. I need help??
 
Hi!
Welcome to CCO!
My apologies you may have misunderstood my post about free resources as BHAT® is not a free resource.
The least expensive way to gain access to it is to become a CCO Club member for $24.99 per month but you can cancel when you finish.

What Is BHAT®?​

BHAT® (pronounced ‘bat’) stands for “Bubble, Highlight and Annotate Technique“. This is a proprietary system, which is used in connection with our educational services, created by Laureen Jandroep in 1999 that uses bubbling, highlighting and annotation techniques to help students quickly find key answers in their manuals during the open book CPC® exams.
Instead of flipping back and forth between pages where the guidelines are, the answers are right next to the codes when a student takes the board exam. Students have stated the BHAT® system gave them the confidence they needed to pass the exam. Another plus: the BHAT® system helps coders in their day to day coding work after the exam as well!
Until 2016, the technique was formerly referred to as “Bubble and Highlighting” or “Bubbling and Highlighting” by thousands of medical coders in the industry. Going forward, CCO will refer to this as the BHAT® system or BHAT® method

Applying BHAT® to your CPT manual takes about 20+ hours so plan accordingly. As an example, if you're using it in conjunction with Medical Coding Review Blitz videos, we recommend you apply the BHAT™ to the section you are about to learn (i.e.. Integumentary Module in the Medical Coding Review Blitz). Apply BHAT™ to the integumentary system of your CPT manual then watch the corresponding Integumentary segment on the Review Blitz.

I just joined CCO club to learn the BHAT method. Now that I'm here I'm not sure where to start. Any directions or suggestions would be greatly appreciated.
 
Go here https://www.cco.community/forums/cpt-r-bhat-r-files.10/ and watch the first Overview Video by Laureen completely.

Once you're done, move on to the next thread below that one (E/M) and use the documents to mark up your manual.

Then continue to the next thread/manual Chapter (Anesthesia).

Keep moving your way down/through the manual until you're done.
