Medical Billing and Coding: Certified Coder - Outpatient Version:
With Client Site Training, courses can be scheduled on a date that is convenient for you, and because they can be scheduled at your location, you don't incur travel costs and students won't be away from home. An additional advantage is that the class is taught on your equipment, so students are learning in their work environment rather than in a classroom setup.

Client Site classes can also be tailored to meet your needs. You might shorten a 10-day class into a 5-day class, or combine portions of several related courses into a single course, or have the instructor vary the emphasis of topics depending on your staff's and site's requirements. We require a minimum of five employees and above.

Prerequisites
The course starts with coding fundamentals and does not assume that participants have any particular background or experience. However, because of the fast-paced nature of the course, it is recommended (but not required) that Certified Coder Boot Camp participants have at least one year of experience working in the healthcare industry in a billing-related, administrative or clinical position.
 
Course Aim
Certified Coder Boot Camp - Outpatient Version is an intensive, 5-Day medical coding course focusing on ICD-9-CM, CPT and HCPCS coding for physician and hospital outpatient services.
 
Learning Objectives:
Its intended to be much more than an exam prep class. Although we work hard to help our course participants become credentialed, the objective of the course is to provide a solid foundation in coding principles and to teach the course participants how to use the coding manuals properly. However, as a part of the course our instructors also review suggested strategies for preparing for and taking the CPC exam.
