There is not much of a difference. If you have the 2012 it can be used to bubble and highlight your manuals. Some codes have changed. Make sure you take the exam with 2013 manuals. We are all about saving money as well.

What about ICD-9 manuals? I heard that you can test using either the 2012 or 2013 ICD-9 manual.

You can, but it is best to test with the year you are in. Guidelines don't change much but codes do.
