Clinical Practice Guidelines + Codes (CPG + Codes, for short) are the most credible resources in the market, combining quick-reference versions of official clinical guidelines with ICD-10-CM and CPT® codes.

Each title in this digital series is based on a set of condition- or disease-specific guidelines that are reviewed and approved by the authoring organization prior to publication. These summarizations of the original, full-text guidelines never omit or alter important information. The addition of ICD-10-CM diagnostic codes and CPT® procedure and service codes facilitate documentation and billing.

Guidelines are typically updated or reaffirmed every 3 to 5 years. ICD-10-CM and CPT® codes are updated yearly. (Annual code updates correspond to respective implementation dates.)
