Why Is Our COC Practice Exam So Effective?
Unlike other Inpatient coding practice exams in the marketplace, all our instructors are CPC® Certified and many have sat through the original AAPC COC® Exam. We learned the material in detail and have been working with students for years to help teach them Outpatient Medical Coding. Now we’ve assembled our knowledge into these COC® Practice Exams to help prepare for the official exam. Here are a few things you can expect from our tests.
Inspired by the AAPC COC® Exam
Many CCO Instructors have previously sat and passed the AAPC COC® Exam. With our combined experience, we have first hand knowledge of what you need to know for Inpatient coding. These practice tests mimic the experience as closely as possible.
Real World Examples
We’ve gone through a lot of trouble to verify our COC Practice Exams are accurate and correctly coded. We have each question reviewed by Certified instructors before they’re approved. And most of these cases can be seen in the real world.

How to Pick the Best COC Practice Exam?
