I looked at several different medical billing courses for a couple of months. The only one I kept going back to was Medical Billing Course.com. I decided to call. I talked to Tammy and she eased my mind that this wasn’t an online scam and if I needed help along the way she will be there for me.

My advice to you – don’t hesitate to take a course from MBC! You don’t have to start a business. From what I learned in the course, I would feel equally as confident in applying for medical billing position.

I began the course with Medical Billing Course.com when another individual was running Medical Billing Course.com.
Within one week I received a call from a Chiropractor interested in my billing services. Although it did not work out for me to work with him, it was only another 2 weeks before I received a second call from another chiropractor that received my brochure. This call turned into my first client – and it took me less than two months from the time I finished the course to obtaining a client!

Can you take online classes for medical billing?

Yes, you can take online classes for medical billing. Our Online classes allow flexibility in scheduling and learning pace, making it convenient for individuals to pursue a career in medical billing from anywhere with internet access.

What is a medical billing certification?

A medical billing certification is a credential earned by individuals who demonstrate proficiency in assigning alphanumeric codes to medical diagnoses, procedures, and services – and is what our Medical Billing Course enables you to earn. It signifies that they have passed a standardized examination and met specific education and experience requirements set by certifying organizations like the American Academy of Professional Coders (AAPC) or the American Health Information Management Association (AHIMA). Certification ensures competency in medical coding systems (such as ICD-10-CM, CPT, HCPCS), healthcare regulations, and billing practices, enhancing career prospects in healthcare administration.

Is medical billing difficult?

Medical billing can be challenging due to the complexity of healthcare terminology, systems, and regulations. However, with dedication, proper training (such as our Medical Billing Course), and practice, many individuals find it manageable and rewarding. Training programs and certification courses provide structured learning to help aspiring professionals gain the necessary skills and knowledge.

Does your course include AAPC certification?

Once you have completed the final Chapter Examination (Chapter 8 of our Medical Billing Course), you have completed the course program. We then email you your final grade and process your certificate and Student Transcript for mailing. Something important to note is that there are no state or federal examinations to “sit for.”

Unfortunately, this is a ploy used by some associations (such as AAPC) to get you to believe you must take their course. There are no state or federal certification requirements to perform medical billing. Period. Certification is only recommended, but there are some physicians who will require you to be certified in order to gain a position within their facility.

Do you offer financial assistance?

We have programs that vary in price depending on your needs. You can view our Medical Billing Course programs on the Course Page

Why Doesn’t Your Course Also Include Medical Coding?

Medical Coding and Medical Billing are 2 separate fields that do not belong together in the same course. Medical Billing handles the accounting of a medical practice, which revolves around Revenue Cycle Management and requires the study of accounting methods and Medical Billing/practice management software. Simply put, the Medical Biller submits claims in order to receive payment.

The Procedure (CPT) and Diagnosis (ICD) codes are provided to the Medical Biller via the patient encounter Document. A Medical Biller is not responsible for these codes. The extent of CPT and ICD that a Medical Biller needs to learn is contained within our Medical Billing Course. Medical Coding, on the other hand, requires study in Anatomy, Biology, Physiology, and Terminology. A Medical Coder’s job is to take a physician’s longhand notes and turn them into digits. A Medical Coding Course usually takes up to 2 years to complete. A Medical Biller does not need to learn Anatomy, Biology, Physiology, or Terminology. Medical Coders are not usually Medical Billers, and Medical Billers are not usually Medical Coders.

How much is tuition for Medical Billing certificate?

The price depends on your needs and what program grouping you choose to take. You can view our medical billing course and pricing on the Course Page.
