This is a student's second coding class in her health information management program. Last semester she learned about ICD‐10‐CM and ICD‐10‐PCS (ICD‐10‐CM/PCS). This semester she is taking an advanced ICD‐10‐CM/PCS course. Her professor stressed the importance of coding from actual records. She remembered her brother had copies of his medical records at home and thought it would be good practice for the class. The next class, she brought her brother’s medical records to the professor to use as an example for the coding students.

1. What should the professor tell her?

2. What should she do in the future if she wants to share medical records with her coding class?
