Medical Coding Training
Medical Coding is assigning codes to diagnoses and procedures which help in financial reimbursement from insurance companies and government agencies. Medical Coding is also known as insurance coding. This field generates medical coders who specialize in coding after a thorough training program and a certification process. The American Health Information Management Association (AHIMA) and American Academy of Professional Coders (AAPC) offers certification in this field.

Each medical procedure and patient encounter has a number, or (Current Procedural Terminology) CPT code associated with it which corresponds to another code for a diagnosis (International Classification of Disease) an ICD code. This helps insurance companies account for and track the money they reimburse to physicians and practices, to help prevent fraudulent medical claims or errors in payment.
