PassProfessor’s Medical Coding and Billing program is a chapter-simulation program for students taking a medical coding and billing course. You pick the course, then pick the textbook and edition your class uses, and the program builds chapter-based simulation exams optimized for that book’s chapter order — so the practice you do this week matches the chapter your instructor is teaching this week. The bank holds 959 original questions across 10 chapters plus three Depth sets — on advanced ICD-10-CM specificity and sequencing, on PCS and CPT discrimination, and on reimbursement, documentation and compliance — plus Applied Analysis and Synthesis sets, covering ICD-10-CM structure, conventions, guidelines, and sequencing, diagnosis coding across the body systems, ICD-10-PCS structure and root operations, CPT structure, evaluation and management and procedural coding, modifiers, HCPCS, and billing and compliance at course level. There is no licensing exam at the end of a medical coding and billing course — there is your instructor’s exam, chapter by chapter — and this program is built to rehearse exactly that.
PassProfessor’s Medical Coding and Billing program is a chapter-simulation program for the undergraduate medical coding and billing course: 959 original practice questions across 10 chapters plus three Depth sets, an Applied Analysis set, and a Synthesis set, organized by textbook and edition so chapter drills and timed simulation exams match the chapter your instructor is teaching. It rehearses your instructor’s chapter tests and finals — there is no licensing exam for a college course — with results reported by chapter.
What this program is — and what it is not
It is a simulation of your course, not a licensing product. Licensing-exam prep rehearses one fixed, official exam. A college course works differently: your instructor chooses the textbook, sets the chapter order, and writes the exams. This program is designed around that reality. The textbook-and-edition selector aligns the simulations to the chapter sequence of the book your course actually uses, and chapter drills let you practice one chapter at a time, at the point in the semester when you need it.
It is not published, sponsored, or endorsed by any textbook publisher or author. PassProfessor is an independent study provider. The program is never branded or titled under a textbook’s name, and nothing in it reproduces textbook text, textbook figures, or a publisher’s test bank. Selecting your textbook only tells the program which chapter order to organize your practice around.
Every question is original. The bank was built from the published structure of a medical coding and billing course — the standard chapter sequence and topic scope the discipline itself uses — and every stem, scenario, and answer option was written from scratch and checked against verified disciplinary facts. Sources supplied facts and course structure only; the questions are ours.
What’s included
959 questions, organized the way your course is organized. The bank follows a 10-chapter structure that mirrors the standard medical coding and billing course, from ICD-10-CM structure and conventions through CPT modifiers, HCPCS, billing, and compliance, plus three Depth sets — on advanced ICD-10-CM specificity and sequencing, on PCS and CPT discrimination, and on reimbursement, documentation and compliance — plus Applied Analysis and Synthesis sets. The full chapter-by-chapter breakdown is in the coverage table below.
Chapter drills. Practice a single chapter — only that chapter — until the misses stop repeating. Finished the sequencing lectures? Drill that chapter until choosing the first-listed diagnosis in a described encounter feels automatic. Procedural coding test in ten days? Work the CPT chapter in sequence, the way your course presents it.
Chapter-based simulation exams. When a chapter test or a unit exam approaches, sit a timed simulation built from the chapters it covers, in the proportions your selected textbook’s organization suggests. Simulations draw questions you have not seen first, so a second or third run at the same chapter is a fresh test, not a memory exercise.
A textbook-and-edition selector. Different textbooks divide the same material into chapters differently — one book’s single chapter is another book’s two. When you select the textbook and edition your course uses, the program maps its bank onto that book’s chapter organization, so the chapter number in your practice means the same chapter in your syllabus.
Results broken down by chapter and topic. Your practice results report by chapter, so a weak area — say, sequencing, or modifier use — shows up in your data while there is still time to fix it, not for the first time on a graded exam.
A note on editions and course versions. Instructors adopt different textbooks and different editions of the same textbook, and departments periodically revise the course itself. The bank’s organization follows the discipline’s standard chapter structure — the sequence the field itself teaches — and the selector maps that structure onto your edition’s numbering, so a chapter that your book splits in two, or merges into one, still lines up with the practice built for it. Where an instructor reorders chapters, chapter drills can be assembled in your course’s order; the practice follows the syllabus, not the other way around.
The course at a glance
Medical Coding and Billing has no single official exam, so there is no official exam-facts table to publish — your instructor’s syllabus is the authority for your course’s test dates, formats, and grading. What is standard is the scope of the discipline itself, summarized here as course background. For the full picture of what a medical coding and billing course covers and how to study it, see our Medical Coding and Billing study guide.
| Undergraduate medical coding and billing — the course this program simulates | |
|---|---|
| Course type | Undergraduate college course (a health information and allied-health course; commonly taken within health information technology, medical assisting, and health administration programs of study) |
| Standard scope | ICD-10-CM structure and conventions; ICD-10-CM guidelines and sequencing; ICD-10-CM coding for infectious, endocrine, and mental health conditions; nervous, circulatory, and sensory coding; respiratory, digestive, and genitourinary coding; skin, musculoskeletal, pregnancy, and congenital coding; injury, external causes, symptoms, and Z codes; ICD-10-PCS structure, root operations, and approaches; CPT structure, evaluation and management, and procedural coding; CPT modifiers, HCPCS, billing, and compliance; and, in the depth layers, advanced specificity and sequencing, PCS and CPT discrimination, and reimbursement, documentation, and compliance |
| How the course is assessed | Instructor-set chapter tests, unit exams, and a final — formats and weights vary by instructor and institution |
| This program’s bank | 959 original questions across 10 chapters + Depth, Applied Analysis, and Synthesis sets |
| Program format | Chapter drills and chapter-based simulation exams, organized by your selected textbook/edition |
How the practice maps to the course
Every question in the bank carries the chapter it belongs to. Counts below are the bank itself, counted question by question from the delivered file — they sum to 959.
| Chapter | Practice questions |
|---|---|
| Ch 1 — ICD-10-CM Structure and Conventions | 42 |
| Ch 2 — ICD-10-CM Guidelines and Sequencing | 49 |
| Ch 3 — ICD-10-CM Infectious, Endocrine and Mental Coding | 50 |
| Ch 4 — ICD-10-CM Nervous, Circulatory and Sensory Coding | 51 |
| Ch 5 — ICD-10-CM Respiratory, Digestive and Genitourinary Coding | 51 |
| Ch 6 — ICD-10-CM Skin, Musculoskeletal, Pregnancy and Congenital Coding | 47 |
| Ch 7 — ICD-10-CM Injury, External Causes, Symptoms and Z Codes | 49 |
| Ch 8 — ICD-10-PCS Structure, Root Operations and Approaches | 51 |
| Ch 9 — CPT Structure, E/M and Procedural Coding | 47 |
| Ch 10 — CPT Modifiers, HCPCS, Billing and Compliance | 48 |
| Depth I — Advanced ICD-10-CM Specificity and Sequencing | 82 |
| Depth II — Advanced PCS and CPT Discrimination | 91 |
| Depth III — Reimbursement, Documentation and Compliance Depth | 99 |
| Applied Analysis | 100 |
| Synthesis | 102 |
| Total | 959 |
Depth follows the bank’s own structure: the Synthesis set (102 questions) is the bank’s largest single set, with the Applied Analysis set close behind at 100, and the three Depth sets together revisit every core chapter at second-pass difficulty — coding courses are graded on applying conventions to described records, and the bank’s weight sits where the course’s finals sit.
How to use it
- Join the notify list today. When the program opens, set up your course first: select Medical Coding and Billing, then select the textbook and edition your syllabus names.
- Drill the chapter you are in. After each lecture block, drill that chapter while the material is current. Short, chapter-matched practice beats a single long session the night before the test.
- Watch your chapter breakdown. Your results show which chapters are costing you. Return to the weakest chapter’s drill before moving on — medical coding and billing builds convention on convention — the structure and guideline chapters supply the rules every body-system chapter spends, and the PCS and CPT chapters reuse the same documentation-reading discipline on two different code sets, so an early gap resurfaces wherever the course turns.
- Simulate before each graded test. In the days before a chapter test or unit exam, sit a timed simulation over exactly the chapters it covers. Practice the pacing and the question style, not just the facts.
- Use the integrated set before midterms and finals. The cross-chapter questions combine chapters the way cumulative exams do. They are the closest rehearsal for a final that reaches back to the start of the term.
Frequently asked questions
Is this a licensing exam prep program? No. Medical Coding and Billing is a college course, not a licensed credential, and there is no official coding exam at the end of it. This is a chapter-simulation program: it rehearses the tests your own instructor gives, chapter by chapter, using original questions built to the standard scope of the undergraduate course.
Does this program qualify me to assign codes professionally or to work as a medical coder? No. This program is study preparation for a college course: it rehearses the course’s subject matter — code-set structure, conventions, guidelines, and billing and compliance concepts — at the recognition and knowledge level the course teaches. It is not professional certification, it does not qualify anyone to assign codes in employment, and credentialing and hiring decisions belong to credentialing bodies and employers, not to a study program.
How many practice questions are in the program? The bank holds 959 original questions: the 10 chapters of the standard course, three Depth sets, an Applied Analysis set, and a Synthesis set. Every question is tagged to its chapter, so drills and simulations can be built over exactly the chapters your test covers.
Which textbook does the program follow? The program is organized around the standard chapter structure of the medical coding and billing course, and the textbook-and-edition selector maps the bank onto your book’s chapter order when you set up your course. No textbook is named, branded, or reproduced — the selector only aligns chapter numbering.
Which code sets does the course cover? The four systems the standard course teaches, as curriculum subjects: ICD-10-CM for diagnoses, ICD-10-PCS for inpatient procedures, CPT for professional and outpatient procedures and services, and HCPCS in outline — each at the level of structure, conventions, and rules, the way the course itself presents them.
Does the program reproduce official code tables or code content? No. The questions are original items about code-set structure, conventions, guidelines, and documentation and compliance principles. No official code tables, descriptors, or listings are reproduced — the program teaches and rehearses the systems’ organisation and rules, not their contents.
What are the Depth, Applied Analysis, and Synthesis sets? Second-pass material. The Depth sets revisit the course in three layered sets — advanced diagnosis specificity and sequencing, PCS and CPT discrimination, and reimbursement and compliance; the Applied Analysis set presents compact described encounters; the Synthesis set carries one encounter through diagnosis, procedure, modifier, and claim the way cumulative finals do.
Can I practice just one chapter? Yes — that is the core of the design. Chapter drills draw only from the chapter you select, and simulation exams can be built over any set of chapters, so your practice can match a single chapter test, a unit exam, or a cumulative final.
My course emphasises outpatient coding more than inpatient. Will the practice still line up? In most cases, yes. Programs weight the code sets differently — some emphasise CPT, others give PCS equal weight. Chapter drills follow your emphasis directly: drill the chapters your syllabus weights, in your course’s order, and use the selector to map the bank onto your book’s organization.
When can I start using the Medical Coding and Billing program? Soon — the 959-question bank is complete and quality-checked, and the program is in final preparation. Join the notify list on this page and we will email you the day it opens.
