When purchasing the Legal Manual, please note that AAHIM has ensured the content is current as of early 2024. However, due to ongoing governmental changes, some chapters may not reflect regulatory updates made from summer 2024 onward. Many federal regulations are currently being revised under the new administration and may be subject to appeal. AAHIM will provide updates as soon as we can confirm that these changes are final and not subject to further legal challenge.
