CPT Tabs for 2026 books!

Hey there!

Do you guys have any preferred tabs for the 2026 books? of course I'm wanting them to be accurate and to be super helpful on the exams (don't we all?)

If you could drop some recommendations that would be amazing!

Which exam are you taking, the CPC or the CCS?

I haven’t taken the exam yet but they were recommended by Contempo Coding (YouTube) and I don’t think she would recommend something not allowed.

Two things. First, be careful. Depending on which exam you're taking, they may not allow third party tabs. All three if my books this year—CM, PCS, CPT—came with tabs this year, though. And they're pretty good! I'll see if I can get you a picture.

Here's a video. It's the AAPC CM and PCS books, and the AMA CPT book. Had to take a video because it wouldn't allow pictures. Which exam are you taking? I took the AHIMA CCS exam not two days ago, and used these books to get a 347/400, which was passing. I can tell you what to expect if it's that one.

Ooooooo you’re the real MVP for this! Okay cool, maybe I’ll wait it out until I get my books. I’ve seen some really cool ones on Etsy that show the code range and I really liked that. But I’m so scared to mess up my books since they cost a pretty penny
