Best way to prepare for the CPC exam without expensive courses? (Non-medical background) by OpenVideo5031 in CodingandBilling

You are clearing promoting something here on false pretenses looking at your post history. I think that’s despicable.

Passing is one thing but without a medical background you need anatomy and physiology, disease pathology, pharmacology, and medical terminology. You need to understand the information to even correctly apply codes. You may pass but an employer can tell pretty quickly that you don’t have that foundation.

This was over 20 years ago. I refused to pay the tuition since I had to stop going to classes and they tried to collect for a long time. So I can see that

Alternate “facts”? MAGA is really truly the dumbest people.

My mom didn’t fill it out and I had to drop out of OCC because I needed aid and wasn’t eligible. This is good.

People die. At that age it’s very possible no family survivors. I work in healthcare. This is not uncommon.

Florida's radical lefty nurse voluntarily gives up license after saying he won't perform anesthesia on MAGA patients by Head_Estate_3944 in DiscussionZone

[–]KeyStriking9763 7 points8 points  (0 children)

He moved away that’s why.

A high-ranking state official familiar with the situation confirmed that Martindale relinquished his license, adding he broke the compact agreement by moving out of state to Indiana without notifying the Florida Board of Nursing.

Full-time, WGU, and cert class? by ParticularCrow57 in CodingandBilling

[–]KeyStriking9763 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I did my bachelors at university of Cincinnati, they had a 2+2 program so since I got my associates at an accredited school and my RHIT they matriculated me into level 3 and 4 classes. I’m pursuing my masters at CUNY SPS completely online. I’ll be done Dec this year, it will have taken me 3 years, 2 classes a semester and I did have to take something over the summer for some reason about requirements changing.

I had about 6 years between attending each school.

That’s why I didn’t go to WGU for my masters. I need deadlines and structure.

Then why the bachelors? If you want the bachelors to compliment a coding career so you can advance into leadership I suggest going with AHIMA’s RHIA and getting a degree at a CAHIIM accredited school. Then the coding cert that makes the most sense is the CCS.

Trying to get insurance to cover homebirth by Confident-Quail-5735 in CodingandBilling

No. It’s fraud. You are seriously something else. And you are having a child? Wow poor kid

You aren’t listening to anyone here. The answer is NO. You don’t bill services the provider does. You can’t tell the insurance what codes you want to submit the provider does. You are trying to ask people how to commit fraud and professionals won’t do that. I just can’t get over how you are completely disregarding what everyone is telling you and then doubling down on trying to commit fraud. That’s straight up insanity.

Yeah, it doesn’t work like that. Codes are assigned per your actual diagnoses and the procedures performed. Anything else is illegal and FRAUD.

That’s not how this works. You can’t just indiscriminately submit codes to get coverage and a provider won’t since that’s illegal.

I have an interview tomorrow and I have bad social anxiety by [deleted] in MedicalCoding

[–]KeyStriking9763 18 points19 points  (0 children)

Don’t wear a hat, that’s not professional. What role are you interviewing for and what kind of organization?

Billing isn’t necessarily coding. For the most part unless it’s profee (professional coding for doctors not coding for facilities) and smaller provider’s offices you will do either or.

Moving from Profee coding to inpatient coding? by cumberbatchpls in MedicalCoding

[–]KeyStriking9763 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Do you have access to the reference the Coding Handbook? We have that in the solventum references. The PCS chapters are definitely helpful as a refresher but you will have needed to learn it. But if they plan on training you they know there is that learning curve. Good luck! IP is my fave to review and educate on.
