Yeah, I went to Remington "College" in Louisiana, what a joke.😂 I quit 5 months I die to terrible circumstances in 2005. But they tough us NOTHING like this. I was not properly trained then.
I absolutely love your teaching style. I'm taking an online coding course through Career Step and find your videos are better than their course material. I'm supplementing my studies with your videos. Thank you so much for sharing your knowledge and talent. God Bless. Stacey B.
You are remarkable. I thank God for you! I'm currently studying to become a medical coder. May God continue to bless you in life because you are blessing alot of us with this information.
I'm only 16 years old, but I have already decided I want to do medical coding. I decided to do this because my mom codes. It seems interesting. It's a good thing that I love all things health related.
@@codemastercoach6636 i don't care where you are at in this world, hopefully alive and well, I wanted to tell you, you are the best, at explaining yourself into great simplicity, I have had trouble in my online school, the way they explain things are horrible, they use your video in one of our courses and immediately i knew what was going on, everything that was confusing before was clear now, I hope that you are getting paid greatly for your skills, because I have been to thousands of videos and yours is without a doubt the best I have seen.
Thank you for making these videos. I work as CNA but have no desire to become a nurse. Instead I would love to pursue a career in the health IT field as RHIT but here are people at my college telling me that its a waste of time due to low pay and employers only want to hire people with years of experience.
Thank you SO MUCH for these videos! I am a new coding student, doing an online program and I need more than just reading and following a manual! With your instruction, I get a full understanding! I'm grateful!
Medical Coding and Billing Services. I can help your office with medical coding and all types of medical claims, including Medicare and Medicaid. I just finished the course and would love to do the coding and billing. Best regards
Soooo glad I found this channel. I have an AA in General Studies and a AHIMA approved Certificate in Medical Coding which allows me to sit for the CCS exam. I've taken the exam twice and missed it by 5points the first time and 27points the second time. I got pregnant and I've been a SAHM for year taking care of my baby so I haven't a chance to retest. I needed a refresher exam prep and this channel is perfect for it! This allows me watch these videos and studying while she sleeps. I am determined to finish what I started. I really want this so bad.
I just want to say thank you very much for taking the time to teach others about medical coding. I just graduated in March with my RHIT associates degree and I feel so lost still. I felt like I did my Associate's degree for no reason. but after listening to you, I really feel like there is hope. I will follow along with your videos and my books to get a much better understanding. Thank you very much, Mrs. CodeMaster Coach.
Yahaira Matias how are you doing now? I just graduated last week and got my HIT associates as well. I found her videos last year because I needed help with the coding book, finding codes or what not. I stopped watching her because I was coming up on my last year and needed to focus. I’m about to go over all of her videos again because I’m feeling like you lol I have to get this right because I need my RHIT and I feel like if you don’t have that, it’s pointless! Good luck!
I'm so glad I found your channel. I'm recently started taking medical billing courses and I find your channel very interesting. Thank you for your insight and knowledge.
I am so excited, I had given up on coding until i came across your videos, your style of teaching make it worthwhile. Thank you for sharing your gift with me.
Thank you so much, even tho this video is from 2015, I just started my medical coding program in august last year I am in my second semester and it is amazing I’m loving this career path, thank you for helping understand in better context what I am actually getting in to.
Thank you for explaining this to me. I am a graduate of the MA program. When I took my exam, it was all medical coding and billing and I had to idea what the questions meant. Now I understand the difference between ICD 10 and CPT..
I am diving into your videos now, and am so grateful for your graciousness to teach here on CZcams. I just graduated from an online-only 18 month college coding course. It took me 3 years to get through it as I was working p/t and have 2 kids. I think I stretched the education out for so long, that I forgot the basics I learned from 2-3 years ago, plus I feel that I never fully grasped a lot of the info. Luckily I have the med terminology down as I’ve been a medical sonographer and vascular tech for 15 years. I had been watching CZcams videos from 2 other coding experts, but your content is exactly what I need. Just wanted to reach out and say you’re literally an answer to prayer 😊
I'm so grateful I found your videos, I am currently obtaining a degree as a RHIT and needed to hear someone who has a abundance of knowledge and experience as a coder. Thanks so much for sharing with those of us who are just getting started in this career path.
Great video. I'm looking into this field, so I'm doing some research first! Your videos give a clear and interesting introduction to coding. Thanks for taking the time to share your knowledge :)
I am a student, and one of my instructors recommended the CMC channel; I starting from the beginning because she breaks everything down to the simplest form of understanding. I am thankful for her.
Thank you so much for making these videos and helping me out understand this career I have chosen. I am taking my Exam in December and I need to remember everything. I am taking a medical coding and billing certification and have been doing this class for a year but been struggling. I am so thankful for your videos.
thank goodness I came across your videos. I've been interested in learning about this field and your videos are a big help. Thanks a lot and keep up the good work.
After serving in the Army,I have decided to change my career/ add to what I all ready do on the civilian side, I was very happy to find your videos. I had been thinking about this for a part time career or full time...I will watch all your videos for a full understanding to see if it will work for me. Thank you for taking the time to do these. ❤😀
I’m starting medical coding/billing at MHCC this fall and I’ve been searching around so I can get a better understanding of what medical coding will be like and just to get an idea of what I’ll be learning in college and I’m SOOO glad I came across your channel! I love the way you explain things and how you DO break things down. Thank thank thank you! Subscribed!!!
I’m so glad I stumbled onto your channel. I’m in college for coding & having to pretty much teach myself through online classes & it was getting overwhelming for me. Thank you for making these videos.
Hi Amy. I just graduated from my 18 month coding college course, and am still overwhelmed and feeling like I really don’t know what I’m doing! I see you posted a year ago…how has it been going for you?
Hi, I am currently an inpatient/outpatient medical biller. I start school Monday for coding. I just want to say already your videos have helped me. Thank you for making them. You definitely have a new subscriber!!!
I'm interested in taking this course because you have really made the topic clear and concise. I now have a better understanding of the Classification. You're really good at explaining the subject.
Thank you so much for your videos. I'll be starting my medical billing and coding class next week and I feel so great that I came across your channel! Best of luck on your future videos!
Your videos are already so very helpful. I have read up on what medical coding is and how it works. As I listen to you explain it, and brake it down however, I can feel the information clicking into place and creating a much clearer picture. Thank you so much for all your help so far!
I appreciate how in depth you are with your training! I recently graduated from online classes and although they were helpful, the fast pace courses were a lot to handle to sometimes. Looking forward to learning more here!
Wonderfully expressed! It can be a bit of a challenge when you are more knowledgeable about a subject but need to express it in a manner that is beginners friendly. The bread example was a good analysis. It's definitely something your followers could identify, relate or visualize. I've been in medical for such a long time and accepted positions in the hopes of one day perfecting and/or becoming a strong, reliable medical coder. I obtained a 2-year degree from an accredited HIM program but due to children, age maturity, financial obligation and not being able to network or sell myself properly during the interview phase I have struggled to cross over from front and back office staff to coding. I've accepted positions in managed care, referrals, physician office, hospital, insurance, etc all in an attempt to be well rounded and fully skilled in my field of study. Granted I have not yet obtained a license in RHIT. I didn't realize wanting the experience in other departments would make it so difficult to get to where I was striving. Employers see my employment history and automatically want to use me in those areas all the while I'm yearning to reach my destination of coding. If I can give any advice on this outlet to bless another it would be to push hard for what you truly want and don't accept no as an answer. If your value is not seen initially.... move. Do Not waste any more of your time hoping someone will quote on quote rescue you, take a chance or see your potential. You have to exhibit courage and not make excuses for what you truly want. Go get it! This channel is a great start. God Bless. - Inspiration By B
ohhhmygoodness I'm taking my class online and I've been cracking my brain what is the diff between ICD10 and CPT and you explained it in 2 minutes >..< thank you so much I was loosing hope of doing this profession, that might sound dumb but I like to know the purpose first before learning about it and now I'm back on track
You are a lifesaver. I am completing my degree as RHIT by Aug 2017 but, learning online is very difficult. Finding your videos has helped me SOOOO much. Thank you
I just made the decision to use these videos to jumpstart my career as a medical coder.. I have already been through a nursing program, so I am picking up what you’re talking about so clearly. Thank you and God Bless 👏🏼
This is a great refresher! I took Medical insurance billing and coding at Everest College and was ripped off. Turned out they were not a creditable school. Sad part is the diploma I received is not good. I want to code but can’t afford to pay for more schooling, still paying for Everest 😭
The way you teach and talk is inviting. I'm doing medical coding for 2021, and a lot of this information can still be applied. The way you explain things, you make it seem so easy (Which we all know that it definitely isn't) - Thank you so much for your videos. My lessons are dry and drone on and on, but I could listen to you explain forever. While doing my lessons in the "class" (virtual) - I'm also solidifying my knowledge with your videos. Thank you!!
I just quit my job at the Post office because I'm tired of being tossed around like a piece of meat. I am 27 and thinking about getting into this field, I'm just not confident that I can get these medical terms in my head. But, I need a good paying job.
@@Gingerbreadgorl hey am 27 too. Geez is 27 the link here. I am looking into a 9 month program. Am working at mcdonalds. I need to improve my income. If i do medical coding this summer. I will be done when am 28 : )
Thank God i found your videos. I already "started" with medical coding. I say "started" because the teacher doesn't really teach us but only gives us hand outs and work on it by ourselves. Your videos gave me the proper introduction to medical coding. Do i have to have certain hours in class in order to take the certification test? or I can just apply for the certification test and challenge it? Thank you. Will follow your videos and subscribe.
Kristoffer Cruz: Thank you and no you do not have to have a certain amount of hours in class to sit for certification. Just make sure you know the material because the certification exams are not easy. Thanks again.
excellent video! my goodness I have such a better understanding. Thank you sooo much. I do have a question. If a person wants to get certified in medical coding should I have a medical background of any kind??
Thank you. No, you do not have to already have a medical background. Even if you did, medical coding will show you an entirely different background to healthcare.
Oh my heavenly stars girl U got it going on. U really know your stuff. U-R definitely intellectual inclined with medical coding. Thanks so much for sharing your knowledge. God bless you.
I just found this videos and will be spending time this summer watching all of these videos! I look forward to learning as much as I can about the coding field and the process and procedures to follow.
Is medical coding a good career to do from home as a stay at home parent/father? My wife and I will be having our first child and I want to work from home. We have already decided that I will be a stay at home parent but I'd also like to work. My only concern is as first time parents who live out of state away from our relatives , is how to manage the job with parenting. Could this be something that I can do in the evenings when my wife is home, or do I need many hours to complete the task? Is part time online work common in this field? All in all, I am trying to gain an honest understanding of the rigor and the demands in this field in the context of working from home.
Medical coding is a work from home job in most organizations. There are PRN, Part-time, and Full-Time positions in medical coding. So, you should be able to find a time convenient for you. The recommendation is a child at least 12 years old at home to be able to work from home without distractions. However, I know many moms that have little ones at home while they work. You will just have to make it work for you.
Do you recommend that I purchase a diagnosis book on Amazon for the current year 2017 in order to follow along with your videos to gain coding knowledge?
Thank you so much for making this! I’ve been looking to going back to school and I was told medical coding would be a good option but no one could tell me what it was and what I would be doing. So again, THANK YOU! 😊
I was just recently laid off from my job of 30yrs...i am interested in getting trained and certified in medical coding and billing. There is an online course through Career Step and was wondering if you recommend doing one of these online courses instead of going to college to get an Associates etc...I think you mentioned that it doesn't matter how you learned but that you get pass the certification tests. I'm just looking for some direction as to the best way to get trained. I love you video's they are so informative and I've learned a lot already! Thx!
Mary Sheridan I’m in the same boat. Thinking of making this career change into medical billing and coding. What did you end up doing just curious? Thanks for any insight you can provide.
Thank you very much @codemaster coach for this video! Medical coding recently caught my eye but I didn't want to get wrapped up in the "advertisement" so to speak. I want to make sure this is something I will enjoy/be good at/grasp. You come across as very warm and knowledgeable, I really appreciate that. I look forward to more of your videos. 😊
I worked as a Nurse for over 11 years, switched to at home medical billing for a large company, patients get so angry about the separate billing. They go to the ER, next thing they get a bill for the facility fee from hospital, another bill for the DR that saw them at the hospital, a separate lab bill, a separate pathology bill, etc etc...so when the patient pays to one place and get another bill they think they already paid it, and next thing you know their screaming and yelling at you. lol.
Whitney Russell Its physically much easier, but i take actual phone calls from patients and then figure out how to fix claims, then forward then to coders to re-code. Pts call in angry alot, bc there is so many billing issues . Its not as easy as i thought. Im think of switching to just billing and coding but i will lose alot of money.But i think i like the part of not having to deal directly with patients.
Leighann Anderson thanks for info. I don't really want to be taking phone calls from patients. I know how people can be especially when it comes to money. looks like medical coding is the way to go.
I am so very thankful to have found you. Your expertise is impeccable. I am a medical assistant/scribe and am now taking a course on line for Medical Billing and Coding because I desire to work from home and I have always been interested in coding. I am just now getting into the beginning coding and I needed more of a breakdown of the explanations such as a "tabular list" and "Flag". Need to know how it all fits together. I am more of an auditory learner so your explanation of things which is so sincere; but yet vast in its contents is great for me. You are doing a great service, may God continue to bless you for being a force for good in the lives of others.
Thank you for sharing this information I am currently enrolled in a medical coding certification program and this was very helpful for me before while deciding my career path!!
I stumbled on ur page and I love love how u break things down and i love how straight forward you are and a great teacher. I'm watching!! and learning ! Bc i just signed up for a certified program.
I'm on my last 3 classes for Medical Billing/Coding. One of my online classmates recommended I see your videos. I am so glad she did. Thank you! You are so easy to understand. I look forward in seeing your other videos.
Oh my I'm so bless to run across your video. I graduate in December I'm learning A lot from your video. God bless you for taking the time to teach us.😍
Thank You! I'm currently taking my 7th online certification class of 12 total. Currently, this class is my first intro to actual coding in ICD-10-PCS and ICD-10-CM and for two weeks I've been so intimidated that I'm stuck. I feel like this particular instructional textbook is difficult to parse out. Your videos are wonderful teaching aids for those of us who are taking online classes and have no way to hear about actual coding in person. Thanks to you, I'm back on track and appreciate your direct approach, your sharing such amazing experience and your skill at clearly disseminating information. Your videos further strengthen the future of our field!!!
I am soooo glad I found your tutorials. You are a wonderful teacher. Thanks so much for sharing your knowledge and experience as a certified professional coder, RHIA and so on. I will be watching and will recommend to anyone who would like real world applications and explanations. ;-)
Thank you for your wonderful videos! I've been thinking about getting into medical coding but I have zero idea whatsoever. I am researching as much as I can about coding and your videos are very helpful!!! I have a degree in Business Administration and do not have any medical background. I will be watching all of your videos religiously so I can learn about it much better.
I am SO HAPPY I found you!!! I'm enrolled in an online medical coding school and this past week we had our first actual coding assignments. After doing them, I'm feeling a bit unsteady, but determined to learn it. I was searching to see if there was someone who showed how it's done by extracting the proper terms for coding. I already learned from this video about cpt, which I had no clue about since I only have the ICD-10-CM book currently. THANK YOU for making these videos!!!!!!
You’re amazing! Thank you! I am considering medical coding as my career path and wanted to know more about what it’s like and this really helped me. I’m going to watch more videos and see what else I can learn about the schooling process. Thank you thank you THANK YOU!
Omg, thank you so much for breaking this down for me because I am starting a medical billing and coding course tomorrow. Your videos will help me so much. Again thank you.
Thank you so much. Youre such a life saver. Moreover youre teaching style is very helpful and understandable and I just love how you break down everything step by step from understanding the difference between diagnosis and procedure within coding. Im starting Billing n Coding soon and your video has helped me what to expect out of this whole program even before my first day. Thank you. Youre such a blessing!
I have been a CNA for 24 yrs I decides that it's time for another career , so I just sign up at a school for medical billing& coder. I'm trying to get all the insight of this field& how it is, that's when i ran across your video& now a subscriber, Thanks for the all the info you are giving
I just found your video. I'll be sure to subscribe. I have been in Healthcare Revenue Cycle (Payment Posting, Data Entry, Credit Balances, Accounts Receivable, etc...) for the past 10 years, and I've been seriously considering getting into Coding, because I want to broaden my horizons. Although I am familiar with CPT & Dx as well as constant changes within the industry, I still think it's best to adapt & grow your skillset. So, thanks for starting this channel.
just started classes in medical coding....I learned more in your 13 minute video than I did in my hour class

I appreciate how in depth you are with your training! I recently graduated from online classes and although they were helpful, the fast pace courses were a lot to handle to sometimes. Looking forward to learning more here!
OH My GOD, YOU ARE AWESOME. SO GLAD I FOUND YOU.
Welcome Aboard Weatha Morris and thank you.
I love your teaching styles!
MEEE TOOOO
Currently enrolled at Ashworth College, and hit a rough patch that ive been able to get through with you. Thank you!
You are so welcome Kayla Dean. I am so glad I could help.
How is it going to that school?
I am getting ready to enroll myself in Ashworth as well....keep us updated!
Same here
Kayla Dean how long is the class and how is it
I am so grateful that I found your channel. I am currently in the Medical Billing and coding program. You are very helpful. Thank you!
De Shawn: Your are welcome.
Wonderfully expressed! It can be a bit of a challenge when you are more knowledgeable about a subject but need to express it in a manner that is beginners friendly. The bread example was a good analysis. It's definitely something your followers could identify, relate or visualize. I've been in medical for such a long time and accepted positions in the hopes of one day perfecting and/or becoming a strong, reliable medical coder. I obtained a 2-year degree from an accredited HIM program but due to children, age maturity, financial obligation and not being able to network or sell myself properly during the interview phase I have struggled to cross over from front and back office staff to coding. I've accepted positions in managed care, referrals, physician office, hospital, insurance, etc all in an attempt to be well rounded and fully skilled in my field of study. Granted I have not yet obtained a license in RHIT. I didn't realize wanting the experience in other departments would make it so difficult to get to where I was striving. Employers see my employment history and automatically want to use me in those areas all the while I'm yearning to reach my destination of coding. If I can give any advice on this outlet to bless another it would be to push hard for what you truly want and don't accept no as an answer. If your value is not seen initially.... move. Do Not waste any more of your time hoping someone will quote on quote rescue you, take a chance or see your potential. You have to exhibit courage and not make excuses for what you truly want. Go get it! This channel is a great start. God Bless. - Inspiration By B
ohhhmygoodness I'm taking my class online and I've been cracking my brain what is the diff between ICD10 and CPT and you explained it in 2 minutes >..< thank you so much I was loosing hope of doing this profession, that might sound dumb but I like to know the purpose first before learning about it and now I'm back on track
I've been there too Simply Kamy too. I was lost with this profession too and that is why I want to break it down to an understandable manner.
Simply Kamy
The classes you’re taking online is it related to medical coding and billing ? Can you please send me the website of those online classes?
amna nadeem you can try penn foster, I just started with them
Simply Kamy losing
@@daniellemorgan2285
did you continue with them...How is going?
You are a lifesaver. I am completing my degree as RHIT by Aug 2017 but, learning online is very difficult. Finding your videos has helped me SOOOO much. Thank you
Your welcome lovelife773.
My exact thoughts!
***** Herzing University
lovelife773 what school do you go to?
I just made the decision to use these videos to jumpstart my career as a medical coder.. I have already been through a nursing program, so I am picking up what you’re talking about so clearly. Thank you and God Bless 👏🏼
So glad I can help Tracey White.
Thk you for being concise & CLEAR👍🏾
Thank you for you channel, I just enrolled in a medical billing and coding program online and my goal is to work from home.
🙂
Irmaris Feliciano same here I start tomorrow yikes!
,
Irmaris Feliciano Im very interested in going to school as well but online. Do you have any information on a good accredited school online please?
What school are u attending?
This is a great refresher! I took Medical insurance billing and coding at Everest College and was ripped off. Turned out they were not a creditable school. Sad part is the diploma I received is not good. I want to code but can’t afford to pay for more schooling, still paying for Everest 😭
Karen Rhea I think you should take them to court why pay for something that’s useless
The way you teach and talk is inviting. I'm doing medical coding for 2021, and a lot of this information can still be applied. The way you explain things, you make it seem so easy (Which we all know that it definitely isn't) - Thank you so much for your videos. My lessons are dry and drone on and on, but I could listen to you explain forever. While doing my lessons in the "class" (virtual) - I'm also solidifying my knowledge with your videos. Thank you!!
Glad I can help you Ellie Lowe.
Your teaching methodology is so easy to follow, thank you Teacher.
I just quit my job at the Post office because I'm tired of being tossed around like a piece of meat. I am 27 and thinking about getting into this field, I'm just not confident that I can get these medical terms in my head. But, I need a good paying job.
You can do this Thatsbananas!
I hear you man.
Just turned 27 and been at the PO 5 years, looking into medical coding. Is this a sign? Haha
@@Gingerbreadgorl hey am 27 too. Geez is 27 the link here. I am looking into a 9 month program. Am working at mcdonalds. I need to improve my income. If i do medical coding this summer. I will be done when am 28 : )
Hi. You're videos are very informative. I'm interested in learning more. Is there a way to email you directly with specific questions about coding?
You are so awesome!!! Thanks for sharing all your videos!!!!
Just began and this coding is something so happy i found you
I know what you mean Jimmie Posey. But, you can do this!
Thank God i found your videos. I already "started" with medical coding. I say "started" because the teacher doesn't really teach us but only gives us hand outs and work on it by ourselves. Your videos gave me the proper introduction to medical coding. Do i have to have certain hours in class in order to take the certification test? or I can just apply for the certification test and challenge it? Thank you. Will follow your videos and subscribe.
Kristoffer Cruz: Thank you and no you do not have to have a certain amount of hours in class to sit for certification. Just make sure you know the material because the certification exams are not easy. Thanks again.
This video is so informative! I've been thinking about getting into this career. Which certification program if any do you recommend?
Danielsbabe1227
I'm looking for this same answer
Danielsbabe1227 I think software will replace this job I don't see why it hasn't already...
thanks for the definition for medical coding.....Great.
This is amazing! Thank you so much. I'm in my penultimate semester for an associate's in coding. Your videos are so helpful.
excellent video! my goodness I have such a better understanding. Thank you sooo much. I do have a question. If a person wants to get certified in medical coding should I have a medical background of any kind??
Thank you. No, you do not have to already have a medical background. Even if you did, medical coding will show you an entirely different background to healthcare.
Do you tutor on line
Marlena Mcduff she should! This was so informative, and the way she breaks it all down is so helpful.
Oh my heavenly stars girl U got it going on. U really know your stuff. U-R definitely intellectual inclined with medical coding. Thanks so much for sharing your knowledge. God bless you.
I just found this videos and will be spending time this summer watching all of these videos! I look forward to learning as much as I can about the coding field and the process and procedures to follow.
Welcome aboard Patti Payette. Thank you for your support of my CZcams channel.
Is medical coding a good career to do from home as a stay at home parent/father? My wife and I will be having our first child and I want to work from home. We have already decided that I will be a stay at home parent but I'd also like to work. My only concern is as first time parents who live out of state away from our relatives , is how to manage the job with parenting. Could this be something that I can do in the evenings when my wife is home, or do I need many hours to complete the task? Is part time online work common in this field? All in all, I am trying to gain an honest understanding of the rigor and the demands in this field in the context of working from home.
Medical coding is a work from home job in most organizations. There are PRN, Part-time, and Full-Time positions in medical coding. So, you should be able to find a time convenient for you. The recommendation is a child at least 12 years old at home to be able to work from home without distractions. However, I know many moms that have little ones at home while they work. You will just have to make it work for you.
Thank you very much for your reply and advice! This is very helpful for me!!
Do you recommend that I purchase a diagnosis book on Amazon for the current year 2017 in order to follow along with your videos to gain coding knowledge?
Either the 2017 or 2018 edition ICD-10-CM code book.
Thank you so much for making this! I’ve been looking to going back to school and I was told medical coding would be a good option but no one could tell me what it was and what I would be doing. So again, THANK YOU! 😊
Your welcome Mackenzie & Hunter.
it was great listening to you. thank you so much for the introduction to medical coding.
Thank you Irma Sosa.
I was just recently laid off from my job of 30yrs...i am interested in getting trained and certified in medical coding and billing. There is an online course through Career Step and was wondering if you recommend doing one of these online courses instead of going to college to get an Associates etc...I think you mentioned that it doesn't matter how you learned but that you get pass the certification tests. I'm just looking for some direction as to the best way to get trained. I love you video's they are so informative and I've learned a lot already! Thx!
Mary Sheridan I’m in the same boat. Thinking of making this career change into medical billing and coding. What did you end up doing just curious? Thanks for any insight you can provide.
Same here I'm considering career step pls give us guidance if we should go career step or not
so I can learn from your videos instead of taking a program ? then take the exam whenever I'm ready?
That's correct Dessirae Clayton. It will just take me longer on CZcams to present the information.
Ohh Okay thankyou ! :)
Dessirae Clayton These videos are very in depth but I do recommend classes.
Thank you for sharing! I am opening my own medical and billing services. Your teaching is such a blessing! I just ordered a used idc10-cm.
Your welcome Christine Stewart.
Thank you very much @codemaster coach for this video! Medical coding recently caught my eye but I didn't want to get wrapped up in the "advertisement" so to speak. I want to make sure this is something I will enjoy/be good at/grasp. You come across as very warm and knowledgeable, I really appreciate that. I look forward to more of your videos. 😊
Thank you! I will keep the videos coming.
I worked as a Nurse for over 11 years, switched to at home medical billing for a large company, patients get so angry about the separate billing. They go to the ER, next thing they get a bill for the facility fee from hospital, another bill for the DR that saw them at the hospital, a separate lab bill, a separate pathology bill, etc etc...so when the patient pays to one place and get another bill they think they already paid it, and next thing you know their screaming and yelling at you. lol.
Now it will all make sense why so many bills for one service, right?
To us, yes....to patients no lol
I'm an RN now, 10 years. Been thinking about a career change. how long have you been in medical billing now? any information or tips? thank you.
Whitney Russell Its physically much easier, but i take actual phone calls from patients and then figure out how to fix claims, then forward then to coders to re-code. Pts call in angry alot, bc there is so many billing issues . Its not as easy as i thought. Im think of switching to just billing and coding but i will lose alot of money.But i think i like the part of not having to deal directly with patients.
Leighann Anderson thanks for info. I don't really want to be taking phone calls from patients. I know how people can be especially when it comes to money. looks like medical coding is the way to go.
I am so very thankful to have found you. Your expertise is impeccable. I am a medical assistant/scribe and am now taking a course on line for Medical Billing and Coding because I desire to work from home and I have always been interested in coding. I am just now getting into the beginning coding and I needed more of a breakdown of the explanations such as a "tabular list" and "Flag". Need to know how it all fits together. I am more of an auditory learner so your explanation of things which is so sincere; but yet vast in its contents is great for me. You are doing a great service, may God continue to bless you for being a force for good in the lives of others.
Thank you Linda Brunson Smith.
Thank you so much! Watching from Nigeria!!!!!!!! Clear, to the point and from a heart of LOVE!
Thank you Seyi Oshikanlu. Wow Nigeria!!!
Thank you for sharing this information I am currently enrolled in a medical coding certification program and this was very helpful for me before while deciding my career path!!
I stumbled on ur page and I love love how u break things down and i love how straight forward you are and a great teacher. I'm watching!! and learning ! Bc i just signed up for a certified program.
I'm on my last 3 classes for Medical Billing/Coding. One of my online classmates recommended I see your videos. I am so glad she did. Thank you! You are so easy to understand. I look forward in seeing your other videos.
Thank you Maya Sanchez.
This is why i love youtube! So educational with useful information!
Oh my I'm so bless to run across your video. I graduate in December I'm learning A lot from your video. God bless you for taking the time to teach us.😍
Thank you so much. God bless you
Thank You! I'm currently taking my 7th online certification class of 12 total. Currently, this class is my first intro to actual coding in ICD-10-PCS and ICD-10-CM and for two weeks I've been so intimidated that I'm stuck. I feel like this particular instructional textbook is difficult to parse out. Your videos are wonderful teaching aids for those of us who are taking online classes and have no way to hear about actual coding in person. Thanks to you, I'm back on track and appreciate your direct approach, your sharing such amazing experience and your skill at clearly disseminating information. Your videos further strengthen the future of our field!!!
Thank you Anne Roberts-Ewert.
I am soooo glad I found your tutorials. You are a wonderful teacher. Thanks so much for sharing your knowledge and experience as a certified professional coder, RHIA and so on. I will be watching and will recommend to anyone who would like real world applications and explanations. ;-)
Thank you for your wonderful videos! I've been thinking about getting into medical coding but I have zero idea whatsoever. I am researching as much as I can about coding and your videos are very helpful!!! I have a degree in Business Administration and do not have any medical background. I will be watching all of your videos religiously so I can learn about it much better.
Thank you.
I am SO HAPPY I found you!!! I'm enrolled in an online medical coding school and this past week we had our first actual coding assignments. After doing them, I'm feeling a bit unsteady, but determined to learn it. I was searching to see if there was someone who showed how it's done by extracting the proper terms for coding. I already learned from this video about cpt, which I had no clue about since I only have the ICD-10-CM book currently. THANK YOU for making these videos!!!!!!
You are so welcome Anne Marie Voegeli.
Ive learned so much in just 2 videos. thank you sooo much. i look forward to learning much more from you!!
Thank you for sharing your knowledge and making these videos. I am very interested in learning and making a career change.
Of all the videos I've watched today and searches I've done this has been the most helpful! Thank you!
Thank you Stephanie M.
You’re amazing! Thank you! I am considering medical coding as my career path and wanted to know more about what it’s like and this really helped me. I’m going to watch more videos and see what else I can learn about the schooling process. Thank you thank you THANK YOU!
Your welcome Lady Stirling Knight.
Omg, thank you so much for breaking this down for me because I am starting a medical billing and coding course tomorrow. Your videos will help me so much. Again thank you.
You are so welcome Cherie P.
Thank you so much. Youre such a life saver. Moreover youre teaching style is very helpful and understandable and I just love how you break down everything step by step from understanding the difference between diagnosis and procedure within coding. Im starting Billing n Coding soon and your video has helped me what to expect out of this whole program even before my first day. Thank you. Youre such a blessing!
Your so welcome Vernice Ena.
I have been a CNA for 24 yrs I decides that it's time for another career , so I just sign up at a school for medical billing& coder. I'm trying to get all the insight of this field& how it is, that's when i ran across your video& now a subscriber, Thanks for the all the info you are giving
Welcome aboard Shandra Armstrong. Glad you stopped by.
Very smart lady thank you for sharing your knowledge.
i am taking my BSN and writing a paper on medical coding and ethics.
You are good help
Thank you gborowme bangura.
I just found your video. I'll be sure to subscribe. I have been in Healthcare Revenue Cycle (Payment Posting, Data Entry, Credit Balances, Accounts Receivable, etc...) for the past 10 years, and I've been seriously considering getting into Coding, because I want to broaden my horizons. Although I am familiar with CPT & Dx as well as constant changes within the industry, I still think it's best to adapt & grow your skillset. So, thanks for starting this channel.
You are so welcome!
Thank you for sharing this information!!!
Your welcome.
Your videos are helping me a lot to break down information. Thank you
