Description of Program
The Medical Coding Specialist Program trains the student to analyze and classify medical data in accordance with a complex system of
conventions, guidelines and rules utilizing a knowledge base that includes anatomy, physiology, medical terminology, pharmacology,
pathophysiology and more.
There has been a great deal of emphasis on experienced, qualified
medical coders due to the implementation of regulations by the federal
government and private industry to reduce healthcare costs. The
Certified Coding Specialist (CCS) and Certified Coding Specialist
Physician Based (CCS-P) can improve the financial stability of healthcare
organizations.
After completion of this program and some experience, the student
can sit for one of the national Certified Coding Specialist examinations
and use the designation C.C.S. or CCS-P after their name if successful.
This signifies the most highly qualified individuals in the field.

What
is a Certified Coding Specialist (CCS)?
A Certified
Coding Specialist is an individual who analyzes medical records
and assigns numerical codes for diagnoses and procedures. This process
supports clinical care, assists medical research in all types of
health care facilities and provides information for reimbursement
purposes. This requires a unique blend of skills. CCS's have a wide
range of medical knowledge (much like an R.N.) including a mastery
of medical terminology, anatomy and physiology, pharmacology and
disease processes. They also have extensive knowledge of all coding
rules, guidelines, conventions and federal regulations.
The medical
coding profession has experienced an explosive need for certified
coders. The Office of Inspector General is "cracking down"
on fraud and abuse in health care facilities nationwide. Certified
coders are the only qualified individuals with the technical and
clinical knowledge to protect their facilities from heavy fines.
