You'll learn current medical coding standards to help you accurately track patient accounts and find gainful employment within this growing workforce sector. This program is designed to help you successfully prepare for the Certified Coding Associate (CCA) exam, offered by the American Health Information Management Association (AHIMA). The registration fee for this exam is included with this program. Details: Whether you're just starting out or transitioning into a different field, there has never been a better time to enter the field of Medical Billing and Coding. More than 850,000 practicing physicians in the United States rely on medical billers and coders to receive payment for their services. Aside from medical facilities, positions are available with health insurance companies, pharmacies, medical suppliers, consulting firms, and medical billing companies. Healthcare workers are in high demand due to the increased medical needs of an aging population and the increased number of Americans qualifying for health insurance. When a professional organization polled physicians in the summer of 2013 to see how they were going to handle the influx of new patients, 60 percent of the respondents said they were going to hire additional staff. This program offers valuable training in legal, ethical, and regulatory concepts that are central to this field, including HIPAA compliance and third-party guidelines for filing insurance claims. You will gain hands-on, practical experience in medical billing and coding and work with the main coding manuals ICD-10-CM, CPT and HCPCS Level II. You will learn how to code diagnoses, services, and procedures for all systems of the body. Medical Terminology is the language of medicine. You will study word parts and the structures and functions of the human body. You will also learn about the disorders and medical procedures common to each body system, including musculoskeletal, cardiovascular, respiratory, digestive, nervous, endocrine, integumentary, genitourinary, lymphatic, and immune. Upon completion of this program, you'll be well prepared to find your place in this rewarding healthcare career. You will also be able to sit for the CCA exam offered by the AHIMA. This program is entirely online and is completed at your own pace. When you register, you receive an initial 12 months to complete this program."},"ceterms:subjectWebpage":"https://careertraining.ed2go.com/southced","ceterms:estimatedDuration":[{"@type":"ceterms:DurationProfile","ceterms:exactDuration":"P12M"}],"ceterms:credentialStatusType":{"@type":"ceterms:CredentialAlignmentObject","ceterms:framework":"http://credreg.net/ctdl/terms/CredentialStatus","ceterms:targetNode":"credentialStat:Active","ceterms:frameworkName":{"en-us":"CredentialStatus"},"ceterms:targetNodeName":{"en-US":"Active"}},"ceterms:learningDeliveryType":[{"@type":"ceterms:CredentialAlignmentObject","ceterms:framework":"http://credreg.net/ctdl/terms/Delivery","ceterms:targetNode":"deliveryType:InPerson","ceterms:frameworkName":{"en-us":"Delivery"},"ceterms:targetNodeName":{"en-US":"In-Person Only"}},{"@type":"ceterms:CredentialAlignmentObject","ceterms:framework":"http://credreg.net/ctdl/terms/Delivery","ceterms:targetNode":"deliveryType:OnlineOnly","ceterms:frameworkName":{"en-us":"Delivery"},"ceterms:targetNodeName":{"en-US":"Online Only"}}]}
