Pharmacy Technology

Do you consider yourself organized? Do you like working with people? If so, pharmacy technology may be for you. Pharmacy technicians help pharmacists deliver medications to patients.

Carrington College prepares students to take appropriate certification and licensure exams related to their individual majors. The College does not guarantee students will successfully pass these exams or be certified or licensed as a result of completing the program.

Medical Billing and Coding

Medical bills can be confusing for patients, but they’re also a complex issue for physicians and medical offices. That’s where medical billers and coders come in. These behind-the-scenes medical workers help translate procedures and office visits into codes that can be sent to insurance carriers for processing and payment. Medical billers and coders also learn how to follow up until doctors are able to be paid for their advice and procedures. Carrington College’s Medical Billing and Coding program in Portland can be completed in as few as nine months.
