Presentation transcript:

Certified Medical Coders (CMC) translate clinical data from patient health records and assign appropriate medical codes. Their work is submitted to insurance companies for payment purposes, data collection, research, billing and quality improvement purposes. Medical Coders play an important role in the financial success of private medical practices and other health care facilities. The greater the expertise of the Coder in identifying relevant diagnoses for patient encounters, the greater the insurance reimbursement to the employer! That’s why employers today demand certified CMCs – because they are knowledgeable and have the skills and training needed to help their practices make more money!
