CCO Club
The Ultimate Membership for Earning CEUs, Webinar Replays, Q&As and Extended Product Access
Ready to Join the Premier Online Medical Coding & Billing Membership?
For the past several years, we’ve been hearing the same challenges being repeated by our students over and over again. We decided to get to work on the challenges and we’ve been quietly working on a membership solution to answer all those questions and more. The result is the CCO Club, a place where medical coders, billers, auditors and practice managers can convene to discuss, learn and expand their knowledge.

I appreciate all the hard work behind the scenes that everyone puts in to give us such great information!
The information that the members and instructors share is always helpful. Being able to attend the webinars and see the presenters is amazing and you are able to ask questions and get immediate answers, just amazing.
I really liked the BHAT technique and it helped me pass a very difficult certification.
- Convenient
- Reliable information/resources
- The topics vary (which as a coder we sometimes get pigeonholed into our “area” and don’t stay up on other areas of coding)
I recommended it to all my co-workers and ladies that ask me where I get all my information from and want to get started in coding. I tell them all to go to CCO.

Access to the BHAT™ Cave
Learn How to Bubble, Highlight and Annotate Your CPT Manual
BHAT™ is a proprietary system, which is used in connection with our educational services, created by Laureen Jandroep in 1999 that uses bubbling, highlighting and annotation techniques to help students quickly find key answers in their manuals during the open book CPC® exams.
Instead of flipping back and forth between pages where the guidelines are, the answers are right next to the codes when a student takes the board exam. Students have stated the BHAT™ system gave them the confidence they needed to pass the exam. Another plus: the BHAT™ system helps coders in their day to day coding work after the exam as well!
In this membership, you’ll learn how to mark up your manuals using CCO’s exclusive BHAT™ system.
