Explanation:

First Question (Diagnosis Reference Book)

ICD - 10 - CM (International Classification of Diseases, 10th Revision, Clinical Modification) is specifically used for diagnostic coding in healthcare. ICD - 10 - PCS is for procedural coding, Medicare Level II (HCPCS) is for non - physician services and supplies, and CPT - 4 is for procedural coding of physician services. So the correct reference for diagnosis is ICD - 10 - CM.

The Accredited Standards Committee (ASC) sets the structure of transaction files, and this structure is referred to as the "architecture" of the file. "Shape" is not a term used for file structure in this context, "database" is a collection of data, and "source code" is the code of a program, not related to file structure here.

Answer:

C. ICD - 10 - CM
