Medical Billing and Coding Program

The medical billing and coding career field is for someone who wants to work in health care, but would prefer to work in more an administrative role—instead of with patients.

Medical Billers are really responsible for making sure everyone is being billed correctly. Some of this involves talking with patients and/or health insurance companies on a regular basis to make sure all invoices are paid in a timely fashion. The biller should understand how to read medical invoices and coding language. This is perfect for someone who wants to have a balance of working with people (on the phone) and also spending time analyzing invoices and data.

Our 9-month program offers training in:

• Medical Insurance
• Claims Processing/Collection Strategies
• Current Procedural Coding
• Diagnostic Coding

This program offers simulated practice where you manually and electronically prepare insurance claims. You will practice interviewing and documenting skills to obtain the necessary patient information for successfully completing and managing claims.
