Resolved Studied in 2023; have to take test again in 2024

[SimonB_84215]

I have the 2023 books and took the AAPC class in 2023. I have marked my books using BHAT and have written in a lot of other notes.

My question: I need to take the test again now. I've read two different things that say, yes you should get the 2024 books or no, you really won't need them as most of the test questions will cover 2023 material.

Would it be better to get the 2024 books and start over or is there any documentation that indicates what the changes are in 2024--so I could make note of the changes in the 2023 books? Are the review/Blitz video lectures updated for the 2024 manuals?

Any recommendations? Thank you.

The 2024 CPC exam will cover the 2024 code sets. Not the 2023. It is highly advised you have the current year manuals for the exam.
