Laureen, if one signs up for the Physician Based coding course, how long will it take to finish? If it is a year, it's too late because the ICD-10 codes will begin to kick in. Can one finish in 9 months? Six months? Please let me know. I don't want to waste mytime and money if I have to retrain again on ICD-10 codes. I have already been through a class. I also don't want to waste my money on ICD-9 coding courses if it is getting closer to that time. Technically I'm trained in both. I feel your courses will go more in depth. I want to be trained in HCPCS level II codes as well.

I'll just jump in here. Of course, it is an individual matter how long it takes. I did it in 5 months, and if you have previous training you show be able to zip along at a good pace.

Also, being able to code in both ICD9 and ICD10 is a plus. This video clip goes into why.

Thank you!!!!!

Thanks Ruth! And Ketina - we have an inexpensive ICD-10 add on program for our PBC students so you will have all the coding instruction you'll need at the right time. Focus on ICD-9 for now and once you get your CPC then focus on bridging the gap from ICD-9 to ICD-10.

Happy Studying!

Okay I will. I am helping someone else with their CCA. I'm her tutor. Remington college didn't do a good job. I did an assessment test on her and said she didn't know anything. She did a really good overall. I will purchase your 150 question exam soon. I need lots of coding practice.
