Medical Coding and Billing Professional program covers foundational, intermediate, and professionallevel topics to allow graduates a clear pathway towards a rewarding career in billing and coding, primarily in a physician office-based environment. This program provides training in areas including Human Anatomy, Medical Terminology, Insurance Billing and Coding Essentials, and Medical Coding. The primary objective of this program is to give students the tools needed to successfully pass the MCBC examination. Once MCBC-certified, graduates are eligible for the optional CPC or CCS-P certifications, both of which are valuable for medical coding in a physician office setting. Those who pass the CPC examination earn the CPC-A credential. When the CPC-A (apprentice) is combined with one (1) year of practical coding experience, the individual earns the full CPC designation. Medical Coders holding professional-level certifications are an important part of the medical practices and may earn 20% more than non-certified coders.
