Schooling questions - Curious


Posted: Feb 09, 2015

I am considering the Medical Billing/Coding program at Career Step.  I know someone who works there and they can get me almost half off tuition.  I want to know what any of you think about Career Step? I went to Andrews for MT school and I think it was great, I just don't know if I want to go that route for coding, the Career Step program is for combined billing/coding.

Question About Schooling

With the continued loss of income, I am seriously considering coding.  I have 2 questions for everyone, I know I wi ...

Here is the situation.  I am currently going through an MT course, I am in the Beginning MT practicum and then I have Intermediate MT practicum to complete.  When I originally signed up for the course, I signed up for the "complete course" (Intermediate was the final module) in order to receive my certification of completion.  I have recently found out, quite by accident, that my school has now added 2 additional modules to complete the course for an additional charge of ...


CCS Exam - I Have Finished Schooling For The ICD9
Mar 18, 2014

I have finished schooling for the ICD9, and am getting ready to start an adjunct ICD10 class.  The AHIMA is changing the test to ICD10 at the end of April.  I wonder if there will be any ICD9 on there at all.  Also, for the coders out there that have trained with the ICD10, do you find it will be a better system than ICD9?  I am excited to learn it.    Thank you, PJ ...
