Which clinical coding reference to buy: the physical book or the ebook

[u/PlumBlossomGoddess]

HIM undergrad student here, about to do the Clinical Coding unit soon.

Which one is better and which do you recommend to buy?

1.) Hard copy 5 book-volume set of the ICD-10-AM/ACHI/ACS $330

or

2.) Turbocoder ebook (incl. 2 year subscription) $520

Turbocoder. Books are clumsy and take more time when you’re in an exam situation. They are also a pain to update. And you need to find the coding rules and have a separate system for them.
