Answer to Question 1

Chief complaint

Answer to Question 2

Answer: Coders need to learn the basics of coding which includes how to use properly the coding manuals. Trying to use an encoder without fully understanding the coding process raises the potential that the encoder software will be used improperly. Coding errors can be made with an encoder just as they can with the actual coding manuals.
