I am going through the school right now and I thought coding was just a few numbers. Holy * I was so wrong! There’s A LOT to learn. A lot.
I am currently in my medical coding program and I'm excited. I did do basic medical coding as a medical assistant, but I'm excited to get into things in full force. I will be taking my CPC when I complete my program
Thank you for all this info. Please say a prayer for me that when I begin this new journey I succeed ❤
New subscriber here! Fortunately, I worked as a billing coordinator and within the health insurance industry performing customer service/quality audits; however, it's been some years. I'm currently taking an instructor-led course through AAPC and hoping to make a successful career transition!
Just so you know the audio and video is not synced but great information 👏🏾
Hi thanks for the information I start school for this profession next month. I'm a former Pharmacy Technician of 26 years. I decided to change careers so I'm taking the 9-month program and I'm excited about it.
I am currently in school through the AAPC, I am almost halfway finished, but I have until April to finish my course to take the final exam. Then do Practicode, do a bunch of practice tests and schedule for my certification exam.
Your first point is the reason I’m hesitant. I would like to obtain a certification but, the pay you receive after, doesn’t match the amount of money it takes to get in and stay in.
Critical information. Subscribed. Thank you!
Sadly I couldn't do it. I went to school for coding, but I just can't pass the CPC test. I've tried twice and I just can't get it. And now, I can't afford to continue - the books, the membership, $400 per test, etc. I wish I'd have known...
Thank you so much for your input on Medical Coding. I'm currently taking an online course now. I'm worried about taking my certification because its so much im learning and I dont want to forget it by the time I take my certification. SMH 😂
Thank you! I am thinking of enrolling in a program for this and leaving education.
Awesome information, thank you. Do you have an opinion on getting an education on Preppy?
To sum it up: Coder's are not Biller's and Biller's are not Coder's! That's like people think that Dental Hygiene and Dental Assistant are the same, NOT! Or EMT and Paramedic are the same, NOPE! There's also AHIMA for coding.
Thank you for sharing!! This really helped.
Lots of great information. Thank you!!
I wish I had known the cost associated with keeping certification.
Very informative! Thank you very much.
Hello Thank You for your channel.I am planning to career pivot to medical coding. I am applying for entry level positions in business area local health centers and remote jobs. I have associates in business administration. There are two community colleges that offer medical coding and one that is medical billing and coding. The college that offers medical coding is an AHIMA short certificate, after completing I can sit for CCA, CCS, and RHIT down the road. The other is AAPC thru workforce development, which would you recommend? I am brand new to this career, excited to learn, make a career pivot.
