Have you or someone you know of herd of the US Career Institute online, cpc coding program and if so have they passed the cpc exam after finishing their program.
I just graduated from their program online, and found it to be quite good. I wrote the CPC exam and passed on the first try with a 88%. The professors at USCI were very helpful, (especially Cindy) with any questions I might have had, but otw everything was very straightforward. I am now trying to find a job, and keep hearing that it is hard to find when you have never worked in the field before, but I will go to my local AAPC chapter meetings and hopefully find out some more information there. Also, the AAPC offers an internship program called Project Xtern that is supposed to help you gain experience, but of course, no one in my area is participating in it yet! I have just begun this search, so hopefully it wont take me too long!
Good luck to you!
I really appreciate this because there are so many out that want to get a job but are discouraged by the 1 to 2 yrs they keep seeing on job listings. Thank you for the suggestions.
