Medical coders work with a team that includes medical billers, auditors, documentation specialists, and other health information technicians. Each of these plays a role in the management of health information data. Health information technicians who specialize in coding are called medical coders or medical coding specialists.
Medical coding happens every time you go to the doctor. Every time a patient sees a physician for medical treatment or evaluation, a record is kept. This record includes the patient’s symptoms and medical history, the doctor’s observations, and the services the physician rendered, as well as diagnostic tests and results, diagnoses, treatment plans, and treatment outcomes.
Medical coders review the patient record and translate items mentioned above into classified numeric and alphanumeric codes. This may sound straightforward, but coding a medical chart often involves chasing down clues to find the best codes to tell the patient’s story.
Coders first must identify important details in the record, and then evaluate numerous codes to assign the precise code to represent each detail.
Getting the codes right is crucial. The right medical codes maintain the integrity of patient information, which plays a role in directing patient care. The right codes also preserve the financial wellbeing of the healthcare organization, as codes form the basis of medical claims submitted to insurances for payment.
For Entry level positions, any bachelors/masters in a life science discipline or medical/paramedical discipline with strong understanding of Anatomy & Physiology along with coding guidelines are elegible.
However, for lateral positions, earning professional certification from a accrediation body such as AAPC or AHIMA is mandatory
At Medocrypt, we provide high-quality Live, online certification courses, designed to kickstart your Medical Coding career. All our courses are led by senior industry experts with professional accrediation, ensuring that we deliver exactly what the industry needs.
Through our Medical Coding Advance program, We intensively train candidates to clear the CPC certification provided by AAPC.
All our courses have continous assesments through out the timeline. And clearing final assesment (above 85%) with the competency in coding is mandatory to get certification.
You can simply enroll by contacting us via phone (+91 7094212654) or mail (admin@medocrypt.com) or through our whatsapp (+91 7094212654) support
Upon completing the payment, you will be assigned to an upcoming batch and receive continuous guidance until you achieve certification and placement support.
Medocrypt was started in 2013 as an offline only training platform for aspriring life science graduates to pursue a career in medical coding.
In the wake of the COVID-19 pandemic, the world has undergone a significant shift in how we approach learning and professional development. Online training has emerged as the clear frontrunner, offering unmatched flexibility and convenience over traditional offline methods.
Online platforms often provide access to a wide range of expert instructors and diverse resources that may not be available locally. With the ability to engage with professionals from around the world, online training opens up a wealth of knowledge, offering you a broader, more global perspective on the subject.
Moreover, offline training often comes with additional costs such as commuting, accommodation, or venue fees. With online training, you can eliminate these expenses, making it a more affordable option. We operate entirely online to reduce operational costs, which in turn allows us to lower course prices, directly benefiting the candidates.
We provide all training materials as downloadable soft copies. Additionally, we offer the latest coding books, including ICD-10-CM and CPT, at no extra cost.
At Medocrypt, we are committed to providing comprehensive placement assistance to candidates who successfully complete their final certification. Leveraging our extensive industry network, we connect you with relevant opportunities and guide you through the application process whenever a suitable vacancy arises.
Our training is designed to equip you with the skills and confidence needed to excel in interviews. However, final hiring decisions are solely based on the candidate's performance during the selection process.
