Medical Billing & Coding - Watch your new skills add up in Emeryville
Medical codes were developed to identify and standardize medical care; consequently Medical Billing & Coding are mutually supporting subjects. That's why, here at our Emeryville campus, students are taught skills required for both disciplines.
Medical Billing & Coding professionals take responsibility for the patient records that track symptoms, medical histories, and more; they also input the data that generates revenue, which makes the role essential to modern medical practices. A Coding specialist ensures the correct codes are used, based on the health care services provided; a Billing specialist then takes those codes and processes them for billing. In smaller organizations one individual may perform both roles, but in larger organizations, they are often separate jobs.
Students at our Emeryville campus are taught how to accurately interpret medical records, how to code the medical information for submission to insurance companies, and how to use software to prepare health insurance claims forms. They are also taught relevant classes such as human anatomy, medical terminology, and the legal, ethical, and regulatory standards expected in medical records management. When they leave Carrington College California in Emeryville, our MBC graduates should have the skills and the confidence to:
- Perform medical coding, and process medical insurance billing and claims
- Fulfill all required front office duties
- Communicate confidently and professionally at all times
- Display their critical thinking and information management skills
