      <title>CCS Bootcamp (Wednesday, June 10, 2026)</title>
      <description>&lt;p data-start="173" data-end="221"&gt;&lt;img src="https://www.mshima.org/resources/Pictures/MSHIMA%20Theme%20Concepts%202026%20(Medium%20Banner%20(US)%20(Landscape)).png" alt="" title="" border="0"&gt;&lt;br&gt;&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;The CCS Bootcamp is offered as a special pre-conference workshop to the 2026 MSHIMA Annual Convention in Hattiesburg.&amp;nbsp; Led by expert instructor Nena Scott, this intensive session is designed to prepare attendees for success on the Certified Coding Specialist (CCS) exam while strengthening real-world coding proficiency.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Participants will build confidence in assigning accurate diagnosis codes at the highest level of specificity, guided by the ICD-10-CM Official Guidelines for Coding and Reporting, including proper selection of principal diagnoses using UHDDS definitions. The workshop also provides a deep dive into the multiaxial structure of ICD-10-PCS, equipping attendees to correctly identify root operations and select appropriate body part, approach, and qualifier values.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;In addition, participants will enhance their ability to accurately assign CPT codes for surgical procedures and apply modifiers correctly, ensuring compliance and precision in coding practice.&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;p&gt;Please note that this registration is for those who wish to attend the CCS Bootcamp without attending the full conference.&amp;nbsp; There is an option to register for the CCS Bootcamp within the &lt;a href="https://www.mshima.org/event-6372369" target="_blank"&gt;main conference registration&lt;/a&gt;.&lt;/p&gt;
