About

The Medical Billing and Coding only program will prepare students for entry-level positions as outpatient medical billing and coding specialists for various health care settings. In October 2015, the U.S. Healthcare system transitioned from the ICD-9 coding classification system to ICD-10. In doing so, the number of codes available to today’s coding professionals increased from 17,000 to 167,000. Today’s medical coders are required to have a firm understanding of medical terminology and Anatomy & Physiology. There are two training options available to each student. Students enrolling in this program should be well versed in medical terminology, anatomy, and physiology, as the program provides training in how to code.
