    Introduction to Coding concepts for the non-coder:

    This course provides basic knowledge of medical coding to non-coders and is


    intended to train office billing/provider support staff in the ways to assist and
    support their practice. This course is not designed to prepare you for certification,
    but rather provide a broad education in the areas most essential to outpatient
    medical coding. In this first course, you will learn: medical terminology, ICD-9 and
    CPT codes, Modifiers and their application, E/M documentation guidelines, Claims
    Denial Prevention and Resolution, and External Audits: What to Look for. By the end
    of this course you will be able to identify and evaluate codes and provide basic
    guidance regarding common errors and billing standards that might be costing your
    practice money.

    Coding From Operative Reports


    This course provides basic knowledge of medical coding to non-coders and is
    intended to train office billing/provider support staff in the ways to assist and
    support their practice. This course is not designed to prepare you for certification,
    but rather provide a broad education in the areas most essential to outpatient
    medical coding. In this first course, you will learn: How to review an Operative
    report, How to Code Diagnoses (ICD-9), how to code procedures (CPT), and Global
    Surgical Package (what it is, what it means to your practice). The course will
    conclude with sample operative report coding scenarios.

    Current Procedural Terminology (CPT)


    This course provides basic knowledge of Current Procedural Terminology to noncoders and is intended to train office billing/provider support staff in the ways to
    assist and support their practice. This course is not designed to prepare you for
    certification, but rather provide education in an area essential to outpatient medical
    coding. This course takes a more detailed look at CPT codes and their application in
    the medical practice and will cover CPT guidelines, using CPT codes, and how to
    correctly apply modifiers. This course is best taken as a supplement to "Introduction
    to Coding Concepts for the Non-Coder".

    Chart Auditing E/M Documentation Guidelines


    This course provides basic knowledge of Evaluation and Management
    Documentation Guidelines to non-coders and is intended to train office
    billing/provider support staff in the ways to assist and support their practice. This
    course is not designed to prepare you for certification, but rather provide education
    in an area essential to outpatient medical coding. Chart auditing is an essential skill
    for any practice; regular audits can identify correct trends before they can impact
    revenue. This course covers the 1995 and 1997 CMS guidelines, the differences
    between them, and how their correct application can assist your practice in billing

    appropriately. At the conclusion of this course you will have a chance to sample
    audit actual medical records to test your skills.
