I am wanting to learn medical billing and or coding online. I don’t have the time to go to the campus so online would be perfect. I have not found any yet any suggestions would be great thanks for helping.

Online medical billing and coding schools are very suspect when it comes to training on the latest medical/billing software since most medical centers have very customized medical software which is not normally shared with trade schools and the like. In the real world of medical billing and coding, training occurs on-the-job. We therefore do not recommend that you subscribe to any online school for medical billing and coding and concentrate on entering a medical internship program at your local medical facility/center for medical billing/coding.
On another subject: the major bulk of medical billing/coding work in the U.S. has been greatly curtailed by state privacy laws as it pertains to medical records and patient confidentiality. The vast majority of medical records are kept in recordkeeping departments within medical centers and any billing/coding work is done “in-house,” not “outsourced.” So, beware of any offers which promote online in home medical billing/coding work–there are scammers out there.
Good luck!
Hello K,
Listen, your question is frequently asked of me and my answer to it is very long because there is a lot to consider before you decide which online course you should enroll with. So since I don’t have the time today to break everything down follow the link below and see what my mentor and respected home based medical billing business owner told me when I asked him the same question. Then don’t forget to come back here and vote me the best answer (I’m only joking). I wish you mush prosperity in the New Year.
