Medical Billing and Coding Specialist (MBC)


Why this Course?

Healthcare is growing at a higher rate than most industries. Due to the increased number of patients and hospital admissions, there is a great demand for this profession. Nearly every visit to the doctor requires properly coded documentation for the doctor to receive payment. Every insurer — from private companies to Medicare — has its own forms and unique coding requirements.

Medical Billing Specialists apply all of these special codes to the forms that insurance companies, Medicare, and state medical aid plans require before they pay a claim. Multiply this across every doctor's office, hospital, and health insurance claim in the country and that's the exactly why this online Medical Coding and Billing course is in high demand!
