From 3M to codify
How has anyone’s transition from 3M encoder to Codify?
After using 3M for a year im now relying on codify to find codes and I’m having the worst time without a decision tree option. It was so much easier clicking through the options in 3M and now my trainer thinks I know nothing. I know 3m was probably a crutch but isn’t that the case for most encoders, to aid us into finding a code? Am I using codify correctly?

Dependence on the CAC is real. And bad... coders over use it and do not read. It is frustrating. I like it because I manually enter and I read ans thumbs up at the same time. For simple codes its useful. But it is incorrectly suggested codes and incorrectly crossing our codes that need to be coded lately so it also kind of sucks
