REVIEWS
In March 2020, I was furloughed with pay from my job and I was questioning what to do next in response to my situation and career aspirations. I saw an ad in my email address from Medical Coding Academy about the online course. I’ve seen the ad before throughout the years, but this time it looked something I really wanted to do. So I contacted MCA and got my information about the program. I purchased my books (CPT, HCPCS, and ICD-10-CM) through Elsevier and I never went through with purchasing the program through MCA. I had doubts about the program, and I didn’t go through with it. So I returned the books and went through another self-paced program. BIG MISTAKE!!! Their program was so long and so boring I wasn’t able to finish it. To top it all off, I couldn’t even afford it so now I’m currently paying off the loan. On November 2020, I got an ad stating that the 2020 online course was on sale for $899. I didn’t have anything to lose, so I purchased the course and it was the best thing I have ever done! The course is put together so well. Mrs. Ortega goes over everything for example what to highlight in the book, how to tab the books, what materials you need to study every day, and online help from teachers if you need it. If you buy this program, DO EXACTLY WHAT SHE SAYS!!! If you do, you will pass your exam. I started the program November 8 and finished December 13 and took my exam December 19 and I passed my CPC exam with a 90%! I would like to thank Mrs. Ortega and the MCA team for the incredible work she has put into this program and for helping me to pass my exam and to start my new career as a medical coder.read more

MCA is hands down the best! Mrs. Ortega’s teaching technique has been an amazing experience. I really enjoyed the online course, it was well planned and layed out, easy for me to follow and understand. The flexibility of this course works well with a busy schedule. Throughout, the entire course, I felt like I was in the class room with Mrs. Ortega, the videos are awesome and very easy to understand. Mrs. Ortega, you have made a positive difference in my life and you are the reason I accomplished this program.Mrs. Belen and the MCA staff are always friendly, professional and helpful.

Medical Coding Academy was the best decision I made in reaching my goal of becoming a Certified Medical Coder. Ms. Ortegas' in depth coding knowledge & structure of the course was integral in my passing the CPC exam. Ms. Ortega & her staff have been nothing but responsive & helpful whenever Ive reached out. I would highly recommend this program!

I feel blessed to have found Medical Coding Academy. The staff has been amazing. They always respond quickly and seem happy to help with anything you need. Mrs. Ortega course was fun and easy to follow with step by step instructions. I gained so much knowledge and passed the CPC exam on my first try. I look forward to taking additional courses with the academy and getting more of the "alphabet soup" behind my name.

I started this journey in 2017 to sit and pass the CPC. Unfortunately, I thought I could pass with no direction or instruction (Failed it). I just started the online course and so far I’m excited about my success. This will be the third and final time I take the CPC exam. Will update my results later

I met Ms. Ortega about 10 years ago when she was a teacher at a technical school i was going to. Even though she was going through her own career struggles at that time she put her students before herself and helped guide them in the right direction for their careers. She is the most loving and caring person I have ever known. She has come such a long way and has done it all just to help others. I consider her my mentor. She is just absolutely an amazing person. She is not in this industry for money or even for herself, she is doing what she is doing because she loves to help others and that is the most important thing to think about when looking for a school; if they truly care about their students. And Ms. Ortega and Medical Coding Academy cares about each and every one of their students. Not only does she want to teach you but she wants to make sure you pass your exam on the first try when finished with her courses and get into a wonderful and growing career and succeed. She is the best with her lessons and getting the information across to understand and remember. I highly recommend Medical theCoding Academy over any other billing and coding school. They do in person classes and online classes and Ms. Ortega is the best when it comes to teaching people! Even if you have doubts about whether choosing Medical Coding Academy or not they always have someone available to talk to to answer any questions. Please don't pass up the opportunity to learn from Ms. Ortega. I promise you that you will not regret it and will have such a great future in this career field if you learn from her! And will have fun while learning as well. Once again, an absolutely amazing school and an even more amazing teacher!read more

I would highly recommend the Medical Coding Academy to anyone who wants to study for the Certification exam in the most efficient way. I did my whole medical coding course online during this COVID-19 pandemic time. MCA offers a good and affordable program and Mrs. Ortega is diligent in teaching the necessary skills for coding. There are many times when difficult questions arise and all the appropriate answers are in her videos. I achieved success in my medical coding studies due to the instructions of Mrs. Ortega. I passed my exam on the first try under her preparation materials. Thank you to Mrs. Ortega and the Medical Coding Academy.read more

I had ZERO knowledge or experience in the medical coding field Is amazing how much knowledge I gained from this course. She truly prepares you very well and I feel confident enough to take my board exam and pass on my first try. I was hesitant at first to buy the course but after reading so many positive reviews I took the leap of faith and went for it best decision ever made!read more

I am very grateful for Mrs.Ortega and the MCA staff. Mrs.Ortega made it possible so that I could take the online CPC course. The course is very organized and easily retainable, as long as you do everything she says! Mrs. Ortega is an awesome teacher. I haven’t taken the exam yet but I’m positive I will pass on the first attempt. I will return to post my exam results. So, if you are looking for a course in medical coding I highly recommend Medical Coding Academy!!

I did everything she said, took the exam last week, and passed on the first try (just like she promised!) 🙂 Very excited to be certified. Thanks Ms. Ortega and MCA!

My experience with Mrs. Ortega's Medical Coding Academy was amazing. Her staff, especially Belen, are always helpful. I chose to do the self pace route and if you listen to her and do EXACTLY what she says, you will pass. I recommend this school to any and everyone.

Ms. Ortega and her team knew what they were doing when they launched Medical coding academy online. I had some previous experience with other schools but was not prepared at all. This program is worth it you will learn the guidelines in the easiest way possible you will learn how to select the correct codes and have life long lessons for the workplace and so much more. I almost gave up on my career until I discovered Ms. Ortega genius program thank you.

I HIGHLY recommend Medical Coding Academy. I am new to this industry and I initially thought it would be overwhelming to take a 3 day bootcamp course, so I chose to do the online course. After following along with the unique teaching of Mrs Ortega, I soon realized I would have been fine either way. Mrs Ortega teaches in away that is very thought provoking yet simple to follow. And the wonderful part about online learning is that you can go at your own pace, pause and review, and take notes as needed. I am forever grateful to Mrs Ortega and her team, because I passed that very CHALLENGING board exam 😉 and I look forward to a successful future. So if you are on the fence about Medical Coding Academy, I suggest you jump on over, and DO EVERYTHING THIS WOMAN TELLS YOU TO DO!! Enjoy you journey, and be Blessed.read more

I am so grateful to Mrs. Ortega and her amazing team at MCA! I made the decision to change careers 6 months ago. I never could have imagined that I would now be a certified coder ready to apply for jobs! I can't say enough good things about the online course. Mrs. Ortega has designed a truly unique course that is affordable and delivers everything it promises. The videos are concise and engaging. The practice cases will build your confidence and teach you amazing test taking strategies that you won't find anywhere else. I was delighted when I passed the certification exam on the first try! The preparation work may feel tedious in the beginning but stick with it. Everything in this course is designed with purpose and intention. I am amazed at how skilled I have become in such a short period of time. Thanks MCA!! 😃read more

I originally was VERY hesitant to sign up for any online course when you hear about all the scams out there. I signed up for a course at a local school that would have taken 9 months to complete to then be prepared to take the CPC. I never researched any online courses out of fear. I then was really feeling like I was wasting time waiting for my classes to begin and started researching more. I found Medical Coding Academy and the rest is history! I requested a refund back from the school I enrolled in right away. Belen was so amazing to help me navigate signing up and answering all of my skeptical questions. I am proud to say that 3.5 weeks after starting my online courses I passed my CPC exam with an 83%! Listen, nothing worthwhile is easy. The program is not designed to rush through it etc. I was only able to finish so much coursework so fast because I studied full time at least 8 hours a day. I am currently out of work and was able to dedicate my every moment into this. Mrs. Ortega tells you exactly what you need to do. Follow her instructions. Another tip is to pause the video and work out the case prior to her going through it. Then see if you got the correct answer. This took exponentially longer but sure paid off in the long run. It is challenging but she explains it so well and in detail. It will feel overwhelming in the beginning but it all comes full circle just keep pushing. I also recorded myself reading my notes as well as flash cards. I would go walking and have them playing to help me study on the go. You will have to work but she gives you every tool you need. If you want to pass your test and understand guidelines etc then take this course. I am excited for my future and to see where this takes me! Thank you Mrs. Ortega for developing a curriculum that kept my attention and was methodical. Thank you Belen for standing by to help me with any questions or support I needed! PS I am still waiting for my prior school to issue a refund check! I already finished my course and passed my test! How amazing is that!? You get out of it what you put in so remember that!read more

All of the tips and tricks came in handy like she says “do what I say” and I passed the exam on my first try. Could not be happier with this course! The instruction videos and materials are very comprehensive, anytime I had a question or concern they were right there with an answer very very quick to respond and that meant everything to me.

This is to SAY a big thank you to Mrs Ortega and the team. I bought the online CPC program, DID EVERYTHING she said to do, read the question rationales, read the GO TO PAGE daily and Kept it moving. I completed the program in 3 months less 4 days and took the test and passed on the first try. MCA has worked hard to focus on the majors for this course and I bless them for this! Thank you so much. If you are still wondering if you should sign up, please do and 'keep it moving'

This class was absolutely life changing for me. I had made 2 previous attempts to enter the medical coding industry over the last 4 years, but the teaching from that particular program was over my head and the online classroom platform was so confusing to access the information. Ms. Ortega and the Medical Coding Academy have made this experience absolutely unforgettable. I started the class and finished it in less than two months. If it wasn’t for the user friendly online platform, instructional videos broken down to where anyone with or without experience can understand, personalized option plans for timeframe to complete class at one’s own pace, class materials that revolutionized the way I viewed the coding books, and the desire to see the students succeed was ABSOLUTELY WHAT I NEEDED! Thank you Ms Ortega and MCA!read more

I just finished the online coding course and passed the mock exam (mock exam, flashcards and textbook included in the course). This course is absolutely incredible. Mrs. Ortega and her team did an amazing job with the production and put together a jaw dropping amount of information and materials for each student. Mrs. Ortega is thorough and decisive throughout the course. She keeps your attention and is very to the point, focusing in everything you need to pass the board exam. The 350 Cases textbook is honestly a blessing. It breaks down each and every case so you can easily understand the material and Mrs. Ortega is with you every step of the way going through all 350 on video with you. She clarifies everything with ease and to the best of her ability for full understanding. I would love to attend the 3-day course as well just because!-Double the learning but this will unfortunately depend now on the covid situation. Regardless, even if I can't attend the 3-day, I know with the MCA coding online course I have been given all the information I need to sit for the board exam. Listening and doing everything Mrs. Ortega says and putting in the work is key! After finishing the course and being an MCA "Go-To" coder, I know that I have a huge advantage to passing the national exam over the traditional classroom student. Thank you for all your hard work and dedication Mrs. Ortega and the MCA family, you are so appreciated.read more

Ok. So, I didn’t have Facebook and I normally don’t leave reviews but Mrs. Ortega and her Medical Coding Family that I’m now a part of are worth every bit of this!! Did I tell you I hate Facebook! Anyway, let me explain to you the character of Mrs. Ortega and how her actions in her Momma Coder programs speak volumes about her.. Towards the beginning of her career as an instructor she noticed the struggles and disappointments of her students not being able to pass their boards. So, it saddened her deeply and she wondered there has to be more she could.do ...well here you have it folks, she has taken so much time out of her life to possibly make things easier for example she has her own book color code tabbing system that alone is work!! She makes coding look easy and pulls all the important information out. And makes understanding easier! She has catchy phrases and ways of helping you remember things . I don’t know very many instructors or people for that matter . That would do all this for strangers.. Her students at which she has never met but cares so very much about!!You are truly the BEST thanks for your patience , positivity and phone calls that pulled me through getting my certificate!read more

Mrs Ortega was a great teacher. I was suppose to go to the 3 day bootcamp; however, due to Covid-19 I chose to switch to online. I was afraid that doing the online course I would feel disconnected , and that was not the case at a I would recommend Medical Coding Academy to anyone who is interested in the medical field. I passed my test on the first try and felt extremely prepared for the test. Thank you Mrs Ortega and the staff at MCA!

After being disabled all throughout my 20's and then suddenly having no choice but to get back into the workforce as a single mother in my early 30's, I felt totally overwhelmed by my direction in life. With a lot of personal medical experience under my belt, I decided that a medical admin career would be ideal. So, I enrolled in an expensive online college to get a certificate in medical coding and billing. Cut to a few weeks into my first semester when I stumbled upon Mrs. Ortega's YouTube videos... I watched one, then another, then another. I just loved her energy so much. Her story and path to creating MCA really spoke to me. I could feel her determination and positivity and I instantly knew that I had to leave my school and somehow figure out how to do the MCA online program! It was not easy for me to afford out of pocket, but I have felt so strongly from day 1 about this course and I knew I had to make some sacrifices to build a career and a future. Let me tell you, this was one of the best decisions I've ever made! The online course was extremely well designed. The materials that come with the course are absolutely beautiful and made with so much love and thought! Honestly, the 350 case book is so impressive! Was there a lot of work to do? TONS! Was it all worth it? 100%! Mrs. Ortega teaches strategies that are so crucial to success. I thoroughly enjoyed her friendly and "motherly" approach. I cannot even imagine trying to learn the E&M section without this program! Before this program, I felt really scared about my future and now I feel like I have a path toward the career I've always wanted to have. I feel hopeful and I owe it to Mrs. Ortega and her staff who have graciously helped me numerous times! Thank you for doing what you do! Thank you for making this online course accessible to someone like myself who lives across the country! Thank you for your tips, your guidance, your prayers and the inspiration that you have given me! I pray you will create more online courses in the future. I will absolutely come back for more credentials if you do! ♥️💪read more

I don't know where to began with giving this review, because there are so many GOOD things to say about this program in the short time I have known about it. I was informed about this program in Jan of 2020 and it has been nothing short of a wonderful experience! From the staff, Mrs. Ortega and the knowledge that she provides for preparing you for your Coding Certification. I was given so much information that I needed from the beginning to the end, and although I have not taken my exam yet which is scheduled for both 6/18 & 6/19 due to covid-19 I feel more than ready to take the test!!! I will forever be Thankful for Mrs. Ortega & her wonderful staff for providing such a full proof program! I am looking forward to continuing my education with her & getting more certifications via her knowledge & programs! THANK YOU SO MUCH! if you are wondering if this is a good program..trust me it really is!!! but don't just take my word for it, judge for yourself and watch that you will feel the same way!

I want to thank MCA for their E&M training. I have been taking an online course through another school and doing pretty well. However, I was completely lost when it came to E&M. Mrs. Ortega made it so easy to understand and her passion for coding is contagious. I was smiling through the whole video. I will be checking out MCA for my future coding credentials.

I want to thank Mrs. Ortega for offering the Online Video course. Her explanations were broken down easy enough to understand. Her colorful underlining in the videos helped me locate the key points to assign a medical code without reading the whole story. She alerted the student when it was necessary to read the whole medical case documentation. With the Evaluation and Management section I was quite impressed on how she labeled the CPT manual in order to figure out the leveling with confidence. Her tips and tricks gave me enough confidence for me to go out into the work force. I want to thank you for your Online Video course and please continue publishing. I give you a 5 STAR and recommend this course to anyone.Thank you,Carol Walter GO TO CODER Online courseGainesville GAread more

So now that I have a chance to settle back into self after the extreme bootcamp this pass 3 days, I wanted to take time out to say thank you sooo much Mrs. Ortega. Not only did you give me the weapon of knowledge to do my exam today, you restored a sense of faith that I didn’t know I have been so far away from. The most rewarding feeling is knowing that someone else is fighting just as hard as you are to succeed and speaks it to existence EVERYDAY. But the true MVP is your husband. For those who will read this, she works hard day and night to give success by shining light and faith onto her students; but he works even harder in the shadows to make sure the light inside her heart for who she is and what she is doing for others shines brighter. I’m a winner because of you guys. And if I don’t miss ANYTHING else, I’m definitely going to miss your smile. Thank you both. And for others reading this, if you are interested enough to look her up, don’t doubt making that move to see her. TAKE THE CLASS! You want to see it to believe it TAKE THE CLASS!!! But if you don’t want to take you future seriously (in Mrs. Ortega’s voice (for those who took her class)) keep it moving.read more

I took the 3 day CPC course in December 2019 and it was amazing! I came to this course with ZERO knowledge of medical coding and Ms. Ortega was able to give me a great foundation of knowledge and understanding in just 3 days. The teaching style is quite engaging and enjoyable so there was no time for my mind to drift. Ms. Ortega was helpful and answered student questions during the course as well. I left her class feeling confident to dive into this career change. Thank you, MCA and Ms. Ortega!

She is very passionate about medical coding and her students. I’ve taken her 3 day class and it was nothing short of amazing. Trust me it’s a lot of hard work but the end result will be great!

I recently attended the 3-day Medical Coding Class in Dallas, Tx taught by Ms.Delissa Ortega. Before this class I did take a 9-month course in coding at a local college. However, I feel that I learned more in the 3-day class then the 9-month course. Ms. Ortega is a very dedicated teacher my and she inspired me to accomplish goals. I feel this course has prepared me for a rewarding future in the medical coding field. Also, you will learn something new if you decide to attend one of the courses that are offered.

I cannot say enough wonderful things about Mrs. Ortega and the entire MCA team! I completed the Medical Coding Academy online course in 6 weeks and passed the CPC Board Exam 5 days later! I have been out of the workforce for 13 years raising my children and I was very nervous about taking on a brand new career without any prior knowledge or experience, but Mrs. Ortega's stellar reputation and all of the 5 star reviews gave me the confidence to go for it. And I am so glad I did! The online course is amazing! It is organized and easy to follow with clear instructions every step of the way. I loved doing the online course because I could go through each section as many times as I needed to get a strong understanding of the material. The MCA team was a huge resource as they were there to answer any questions along the way. And even though Mrs. Ortega was not physically there with me, I could feel her genuine desire for me to succeed. Her innovative teaching and test taking strategies coupled with her clear and to the point teaching style are a recipe for success. "Do everything this woman says!"read more

The entire experience was amazing. Ms. Ortega is so confident, and rightfully so. She has a brilliant way about teaching and I don't feel as if I stood any kind of chance of passing my board exam without having attended her 3 day course. She has put together a fool-proof system that not only allows her students to pass their exam, but makes them feel super confident in going into the work force as a certified coder. I look forward to continuing my education with her. I passed my exam on the first try!read more

In October, I attended MCA CPC 3-day Bootcamp in Atlanta taught by Mrs. Ortega. The decision to register was difficult due to finances; however, it was one of the BEST decisions I’ve ever made. Mrs. Ortega’s teaching passion was evident from the beginning of the bootcamp until the very end. She was answering questions even as she was leaving to catch her flight. She is an AMAZING teacher. Not only did she explain coding techniques, but she also shared a wealth of knowledge on what to expect in the real world of coding. She encouraged, motivated and challenged us not to stop at a CPC credential, but to pursue additional credentialing (which I will ONLY do through MCA). I had taken two other coding classes prior to MCA and neither educated me the way Mrs. Ortega and the assigned required pre-work has. Yes, you will have to put in the work, but I’m pleased to report that I PASSED the exam on my second attempt after being only 4 points off on my first attempt. First, Praise be to God and second, Thank You Mrs. Ortega. I’m already preparing to register with MCA for my next certification.If you’re contemplating on whether you should register with MCA, I pray my review will assist you in that decision. Let 2020 be the beginning of something NEW. Again, my sincere thanks to Mrs. Ortega for giving us your “ALL.” May God continue to Bless You!!!!!read more

I recently took the three day intensive class and all I can say is wow! When I sat for the board certification test I felt sorry for the people there that took their classes at a community college or another online program. There is alot of information to learn in three days, I compare it to learning 6 huge reference books. However Ms. Ortega has a gift to teaching this subject very thoroughly so that you learn it thoroughly. She also teaches on how to take the test so that when you finally taking the test you are very familiar with the format. This woman is gifted and she cares about you and will sit down with you to go over any obstacle that you may have. I plan on advancing to other certifications and will gladly fly to Texas again from North Carolina to be a student of the Medical Coding Academy. It simply does not make sense to spend 6 months in a class elsewhere and still not receive the knowledge and passion from this organization. I am very grateful that I made the decision to attend this 3 day class. I am completely new to this industry and feel validated that I made the correct decision and will gladly do it again. Thank you Medical Coding Academy and Ms. Ortega.read more

Mrs.Ortega is an amazing teacher. I had taken my first CPC exam 5 years ago and failed😔. Life happened and I never retook it until this past weekend. A good friend recommended Medical Coding Academy to me and thank God I took her advice. I took the course online while also taking 2 regular college online classes for my bachelor's. I am happy to share that I passed, oh and I took the test while being 34 weeks pregnant. If it wasn't for God and him putting Mrs. Ortega in my life I would have failed again. She made it simple and I praise God for that. God bless you Mrs.Ortega. I highly recommend this course ...do everthing Mrs. Ortega says and you will pass!!!!!read more

This "Boot Camp" was fantastic from the word GO! Miss Ortega and every single person on her staff for that matter are there to make sure NOBODY gets left behind. YOU work hard no lie, hence my reference to the "Boot Camp" but they all work just as hard as you do & right along side of you. ALL questions are answered no matter how many times it takes to make sure we are all on the same wave length. Miss Ortega has a truly Blessed nature for teaching and and does a fabulous job! She is the most caring person I have ever taken a class from, she is not there for the dollar signs she is there for pleasure of helping you to succeed and improve your own self! I learned more in the 3 days I had with her than I did in any face to face course I had taken with Brick and Mortar charging me a through the teeth... I am awaiting my results for the exam I took now. Thank you, thank you, thank you.... will never truly show how much I appreciate what she and her team have done for me!! However; the fact that I will be back for another "Boot Camp" to get to the next Alphabet Credential, does say a lot... I could not and would not dare try it without the Medical Coding Academy Team!!!read more

I have never had a teacher like Miss Ortega. You can really tell she is passionate about what she does and providing a future in coding to others. SHE REALLY LOVES WHAT DOES! I’ve never had a teacher break things down the way she does. The class is fast paced, so you better get that pre work done. She gives you ALL THE TOOLS YOU NEED TO BE SUCCESSFUL. All you have to do is listen to her.. listen to everything she says, don’t over think it, and do your pre work! I was very confident going into my test.... nervous, but CONFIDENT! I had no coding experience but years of insurance authorizations and was feeling a little stuck.. not anymore. This class is your opportunity...This is class is real, you will learn coding and YOU WILL PASS YOUR TEST!read more

I already have a coding certification but I was lacking the depth concept, listening to Mrs. Ortega explain cases, rationale answers finally a light bulb went off. All these years I’ve been hesitant to obtain my CPC...shame on me! I’m ready to go for CPMA next!! Do NOT waste your money on any other school, MCA is worth the investment!!!read more

I just took this class in Dallas these past 3 days and took my test today. Not sure if I will pass or not because I ran out of time and had to do some guessing which Im not happy about. If I would’ve had another hour, there’s no doubt I would pass the test. While I was taking the test, I was feeling very confident and happy because everything we discussed in class was in the test and the “Pot of Gold” was very useful. Those 27 questions were an easy ride for me. I’m glad I took them in the order that Mrs. Ortega recommended. I could hear Mrs. Ortegas voice in my mind saying like it and keep it moving. Lol! Overall, the test wasn’t hard because this class prepared me very well and I did everything that woman said. My book came with missing pages and Mrs. Ortega was so kind and gave me those pages from her book. I ended up needing them for the test. This class was great. I wanted to wait until I took the test to write a review for this class. This class definitely prepared you with EVERYTHING you need for the test. Mrs. Ortega is very passionate about it, very patient and helpful. I do have a few suggestions, but honestly they are so minor that I’m not even going to mention them. I recommend this class 100% and if you do your prework (MUST do), do your homework and pay attention in class, you can easily pass the test. I was really surprised when I started taking the test and I saw that the questions were very similar to what we discussed in class. It’s like Mrs. Ortega wrote the test. 😂 If you are planning to get certified as a CPC, don’t hesitate and take this class!read more

Where do I begin? I took my test today and funny story, when we were in the class Ms. Ortega’s saying is KEEP IT MOVING. By the way, I wore my bracelet to my test. But anyway, she kept saying, pick this answer and KEEP IT MOVING. The whole time I was taking my test, I literally could hear her saying it every time I chose the right one. I even smiled and laughed to myself. Who does that during a test?Thank you Ms. Ortega and her holy crew for being patient with us, and sharing your gift, your passion, but most of all, your time. I felt like a rock star going into that test and with an hour to spare, I walked out feeling just the same, it’s all because of you. When I pass I know for a fact, I’ll be back on here posting that BIG PASSING SCORE! I’m gonna take a picture. Bless you!!read more

I had no experience whatsoever, and I was able to understand it. I, unfortunately, did not pass on my first try (due to my own anxiety), but I did as Mrs.Ortega asked and emailed her immediately. She was very responsive and willingly sent me the tools that I needed. I then sat for my test and passed on my next try with FLYING COLORS!!!!!

Words can’t come close to describe Mrs. Ortega’s teaching style! She is unique, tactful and called by Jesus. I came into the class on Friday morning, honestly not even sure a teacher would show up...I was skeptical. She was the best teacher I have ever had in my life- including college. I learned SO MUCH and I didn’t even know what coding was at 8am on Friday. It’s Sunday at 5pm and I’m a confident “Go-to-coder” xoxo, Mrs. Ortega, it’s all about youuuuUuuuUuu 😂

She explained everything in such a way that was very easy for me to understand. She also did not go to the next topic until EVERYONE understood and was on the same page. I am extremely confident I will pass my exam on the first try after completing this EXCEPTIONAL course. Mrs. Ortega, thank you so much for EVERYTHING!!!!!!!!! 😊read more

I have a hard time focusing and learning the task on hand, but with her knowledge and methods. I came out of her class on day 3 knowing that I was going to Ace my exam! I loved her teaching style and how she puts her faith first in everything she does. I got so much more out of her class than I could have ever imagined. I am so thankful for Mrs. Ortega and that I stumbled upon her Facebook page when I did. I know I kept going back and forth on if I should take the class or not but I’m so thankful that I did!

Just take the class. Nothing else needs to be said! I learned more in three days with Mrs Ortega than I did from all the time I wasted on the AAPC course. Half the people around me had tried the AAPC course route and found it too convoluted too. Now be prepared to WORK, but its worth it! If you sit down, keep your mouth shut and just absorb everything she says you will walk away from this class knowing you can do this. I would highly recommend her class to a person willing to show up and work, NOT COMPLAIN. I am already looking at which one day class I want to come take first for when I pass this test. I will say it again, JUST TAKE THE CLASS!read more

Okay, so, I'm writing this immediately after receiving my pass my CPC certification exam. I finished in 3 hours out of the 5 hours 40 minutes that the exam provides and passed with the equivalent of a B.Ms. Ortega knows her coding. Ms. Ortega knows the test. Ms. Ortega knows what works and what doesn't.This three-day course probably helped me prepare better for the exam than the official AAPC prep course. I've taken both; the prep course is good for the basics, but if you want to pass the exam and pass it quickly, then it would behoove you to attend Ms. Ortega's boot camp. It's well worth the price and the pain, I promise you.Listen to Ms. Ortega.Follow Ms. Ortega's instructions.Do as Ms. Ortega says and eat the exam for breakfast.It really is just that simple.read more

Everyone else wasn’t anywhere near done. Also, out of 14 people only 3 of us were taking it the first time. One thing we noticed was the level intensity we gave to the test. We were the only ones mad flipping to codes in our books!! The others were sitting there just moseying along and reading every word..omg! Ms Ortega but omg I PASSED!!!!! Not only did I pass but I got an 84%!!! I’m so happy!! Thank you so much for this program!!!! Also, Lori passed too!! I do believe you were put in my path by God. You were an answer to my prayer!!! I DO know the ONLY way to pass is to use your program!!! By the way, I saw my doctor recently and actually told him pick something and keep it moving and sang the tune “If I have that too.... fix that too”!(a plug to your excludes 2 note for ICD-10😂) Anyway, I just wanted to let you know where we are and how thankful I am for your hard work in bringing this program to us!!! Thank you doesn’t even come close to conveying how I feel!! I booked a cruise for 1 week after my test so I could either reboot to take the test again or celebrate. I’ll be celebrating in the Caribbean this Sunday!!😊 I’m not stopping with this certification. I’ll be deciding which CRC 1 day class I’m attending before the end of the year!!!!

I have taken other medical coding online classes that left me feeling totally unprepared to take the exam. After this three day class I feel very confident in my ability to do well on the exam. Mrs. Ortega has thought of everything! She gives us customized homework/practice to do until we take the exam, after the exam and the night before starting our first job to keep us fresh. Mrs. Ortega even gives guidance for the interview and I highly recommend purchasing her USB stick with resume templates letters of interest etc.This class was definitely worth every single penny it cost and I would recommend it to everyone wishing to become a medical coder.

I have been to many diffent certification classes in the last. I have always gotten a ton of information from teachers. I have then had to try and simplify it for myself so so could understand it in a way that is simple and fast. This class and Mr. Ortega have simplified it so much that you just have to get out of your own way and follow her instructions.This past weekend was to say the least, MIND BLOWING!!! Going through this class will open your eyes. It's a very tuff class ibuprofen and caffeine was my best friend for the next few days of class. When Ms. Ortega gets done with the class you are going to want to kick yourself for not doing this sooner!!!read more

I would most definitely recommend anyone who can take this 3 day course or the online course if you interested in Medical Coding. DO NOT WASTE YOUR TIME AND MONEY on any other program, I guarantee you will not be as prepared and equipped for the National Exam as you will with this Beautiful Gem! Thank You Mrs Ortega for your dedication to All of us as your students! You’re one of a kind!

Mrs Ortega has to be certifiable insane. She breaks down a stupidly long (5 hr 40 min) test into bite sized pieces in just 3 days. Honestly that has to be the craziest thing I've done in my life. And she does it for SO CHEAP. She's crazy! (Crazy generous!)If you're debating about the price, it's so worth it. The AAPC course, directly from their site, is approx twice the price of Mrs Ortega's course AND she's teaching you, not you teaching yourself. I don't even need to compare the price of college to you, do I? Take the course; pass the test; change your life. Of course, YOU need to put work into it to. Mrs Ortega can only do so much hand holding (and she does a lot, trust me). DO THE PREWORK. So important! Do yourself a favor and take her classes while she still offers them.read more

She knows everything there is to know and the best part is she shows you tricks to help u remember things you will use in the real world. Thank you Mrs. Ortega for starting me on my journey to a fulfilled future!!!Gina

So I finished the three day course today and it was nothing short of amazing. Being a biller with just have stuck my foot into coding before was one thing, but after taking this course it has opened up so many more opportunities and the insight she gives on what I can actually achieve is beyond appreciated. I will forever be in debt to Mrs Ortega bc not only did she teach me, she inspired me to reach for the stars. Going into this class I wanted to do better for my 3 boys, but after learning from her and really listening, I also wanted to do better for myself. Thank you SO MUCH Delissa and thank you to her team as well. You guys are amazing.read more

I just finished up the 3 day coding course today and I am SO glad that I decided to take a leap of faith and actually do it. Mrs. Ortega, you are truly a blessing and I can't thank you enough for all the hard work and time that you and your staff put into your program to help someone like me build a better future not only for myself but for my two kids as well. Simply saying "thank you" doesn't feel nearly enough but please just know that I truly am grateful for everything.

Just finish a intense 3 day Medical Coding class! It was worth every moment. Mrs. Oetega is a awesome anointed teacher sent from God. She will equip you with everything you need to pass the CPC test. Can not wait for the next class as well as being able to let her know I PASS on the first try. Thank you Women Of God for all that you did this week. Her staff is amazing as well.

Absolutely 100% recommend Ms. Ortega and MCA's 3-Day course. Ms. Ortega embodies what a teacher is supposed to be and more. As a student coming from spending 2+ years at a community college and struggling to learn the concept of what coding is in the medical field, I can tell you I actually LEARNED all those years' worth of material and more in just 3 days! All in a concise, uncomplicated, simple way. I'm glad I took the risk and decided to go for Ms. Ortega and I'm positive I will pass the exam in a week's time. Invest in Ms. Ortega and Medical Coding Academy, do the work and you will not regret it. Will update as soon as I pass the exam.read more

I took mrs. Ortega's coc coding 3 day course July of 2019, and WOW!!! she is a Genius, and I do mean genius. she teaches you everything you need to know about coding. When she says she is there for you, she means that with all her being. Do not miss out on the opportunity of having the best teacher you will ever have the pleasure of learning from. I went to school for coding. I learned more of what I really needed to know in mrs. Ortega's 3 day course, than I learned in my 1 year class... she also has a Spirit of love not only for coding and teaching, but for each individual person. PEOPLE, DO NOT MISS OUT ON THE OPPORTUNITY OF A LIFE TIME, she will prepare you with the knowledge you need for coding. she also prepares you for interviews, what needs to be known and worn to an interview... Mrs. Ortega prepares you for the real world. So in a nutshell, do not miss out on the knowledge mrs. Ortega has to offer! Wait! I forgot that she also has a great tool for resumes... In Truth, Jeanette Hartunian.. GOD BLESS TO ALLread more

I got the online course and was given immediate access! Brownie point 1! I got all my exam prep kit materials on the mail and still cant lift my jaw off the ground about how impressed I am with it! Brownie point 2! McA has thought of it all!! Ive never seen anything like it. But the biggest that I've just completed the coding fundamentals module. I'm happy to report that I have already learned more in this one video from Mrs Ortega than I ever did when i was attended the 10 month vocational college..smh!!! cant believe I spent 20k on that school. If you're reading this you need to save yourselves the time and money and get the online from MCA. God I wish I would have found them first! Upward and onward..about to start the integumentary system!update!!!So I just had to jump on here and tell the Academy and anyone else who is reading this that I literally finished the online program about a week ago took my test this past Saturday and found out I passed on my 1st try tonight!! Can I just say I keep driving into my bed and screaming into my pillow that I passed over and over again!!!!! Needless to say I am beyond elevated. Listen guys all I can say is take this course and I mean dont even hesitate! You will never find any course better than the one from mca trust me I should know because I bought two others including aapc and they were worthless but Mrs Ortega teaches with her soul in this course and you feel it through the screen every minute ... Please do not try to go to college or by any other courses because you don't need anything but what Mrs Ortega has to teach you in this online course I'm trying my best here to keep you off on making terrible mistakes OK well I've said my piece I've gotta go best of luck to you all!read more

I got the online program on Monday after finding out MCA finally went online! I am waiting on my exam prep kit in the mail but I was given immediate access to the online training videos! I had a ton of things to do on Monday but I went ahead and watched the first video just to get myself motivated before running out of the house to do all my errands. The next thing I know today is day 3 and I still haven't left the house to run my errands because I've been binge watching ever since! Mrs Ortega steals your heart from the very beginning! She's serious and tough one minute then gets playful and fun the next. She'll get after you and call you out on something but then she totally gets away with it because you know she has your best interest at heart. I felt a duty to report on this program because I have a double master's degree and I have never witnessed a teacher like her. My years of college were 100 percent in the classroom and none of my professors had her energy and fire. But the shocking thing is that all this passion just keeps slapping you in the face and you're not even in the classroom with her! How does she make all of this come across in a video???!!! Its an online program yet she still commands your attention but and keeps it too. Its wild! Thank you teacher and thank you MCA. I only wish you would have gone online 3 years ago because I have ordered 3 different online programs including the one from aapc and MCA puts every last one of them to shame. I just finished the integumentary system and I went from hating that subject to loving it! I'll try my best to keep you all posted!September 17thI just want to scream to the world right now that I passed my board exam on the first try after completing MCA's on line program!!!! Evem though I took a class before mca I found out i really didn't have an idea about coding ...the other program was too focused on teaching things that didnt matter but after giving myself a do or die deadline with mca online, I finished the entire course in 2.5 months! I took the program extremely seriously and learned everything Mrs Ortega had to teach me because quite honestly she is a hell of a teacher the...the lady has a gift.......I never once had to submit a question to them...It was unreal....i am just did grateful to mca and can't wait to land my first job...look out world here I come 🙂read more

Oh my God! I've never been able to afford to travel to take MrsOrtegas 3 day class but then i saw she took her course on line! I bought it 5 days ago and I'm beyond hooked!! I was one of the unfortunate people who got talked into the aapc online course last year and it was a total nightmare...confusing and highly frustrating!!! But in taking the MCA online course, I'm just so thrilled!!! i broke into tears just watching the very first video because I already knew I had done the right thing. I was immediately addicted! When I say theres something real special about Mrs Ortega I mean it tenfold!!! You can see right away in her passionate way of teaching that this is no job to her but her purpose...her calling!! Her way of simplifying all of the difficult guidelines are are unreal. I have watched so many educators on YouTube but nooone holds a candle to this woman...nobody!!! Not only are you "sucked in" to her teachings but she is so inspiring along the way and when you least expect it she makes you fall off your chair laughing!!! Shes just amazing to watch and her voice is heavenly! She basically does all the hard work for you and spoon feeds us. Indeed this lady truly is the Mother of Coders. Thank you for being a one of kind teacher ..this industry needed you and we are all blessed through you. I will be posting as I get further into the course.P.s. the Take home test prep kit is head over heals genius! Everything you will possibly need besides the online teachings are contained in the kit. I literally threw away every other study guide I ever had...I'm just in shock over this second to none online experience theres no other word for it.read more

I just attended Mrs. Ortega’s 3-day coding boot camp class this past weekend and I must say it was worth it!!! She is talented, smart, blessed and highly favored! I learned so much this past weekend and everything made more sense after she taught it. She gives you everything you need and holds nothing back. She makes it so simple and gives you the confidence you need to pass the exam. She is truly a gem and I love that she loves God and shows it! She is truly passionate about her students and about medical coding. She is the Queen of Medical Coding!!! I advise everyone to take her course because you won’t be disappointed.

I attended Mrs. Ortega's class. This is a whole new carreer objective for me and I was terrified. From the time I entered the class untill I passed my course, and after, I have felt that my success was the highest priority. The caring staff at the academy from the initial phone call to the completion of the class could not have been any more through and professional. I have had 30 plus years in management and a staff like this is what makes any company a success. I want to Thank Ms. Ortega and Medical Coding Academy for making this whole process painless and I look forward to taking my next class with them. If you ate looking to make a change with nothing but a positive experience I completely recommend Medical Coding Academy and Ms. Ortega.read more

I was hesitant to take this course but am so dang happy I did! Went to the Dallas class mid-May and it was amazing. I have an extensive Ophthalmic background, with a small amount of coding knowledge, but nothing like what I learned. 3 days packed full of learning from Miss Ortega, who is a fountain of information. Long days and nights to ensure you have all you need to pass your test and start a new career. If you don’t want to work hard for 3 days I would suggest taking a college course for 18 months instead. I took my test on June 1st and PASSED!!!!!!! Now working on my resume and the rest of my workbook that we were given. A humongous thanks to Miss Ortega and the crew. I couldn’t have done it without you❣️❣️read more

No Medical Experience I recently attended MCA’s 3-day Pre-Exam Medical Coding workshop with my husband (5/17-5/19) .... and let me tell you, Mrs. Ortega is like NO OTHER!! She takes her love of teaching very seriously and puts her ALL into her students. She applies the pressure to ensure you’re prepared for the exam and a successful coding career. She’s very thorough giving you the tools you need to pass the exam, getting the job, interviewing, and your new coding career. During the prep exam workshop she is not the angel you see on youtube. She is this little petite Drill Sergeant who will put the fire under your feet!! The class is very intense, very fast paced, and can be overwhelming if you don’t do ALL of your pre-work. However when the 3 days are over its a big relief because you will be able maneuver through your books, follow instructions, find and understand the correct answers. Her curriculum and teaching strategy makes it fun & easy to find the codes, without needing to MEMORIZE thousands of terminology or anatomy terms. Mrs Ortega was heaven sent! If you’re looking for a teacher to teach you the basics of coding and how to pass the CPC medical coding exam with ZERO coding experience... Then Look no further Mrs. Ortega and her team are IT!! Me & the hubby are scheduled to take the AAPC exam May 25th... I’ll be back to let y’all know we passed!!!! -**** UPDATE WE PASSED****Thank you again Mrs. Ortega and Staff! May god continue to bless and protect you from the naysayers. Your energy and heart is so pure. Continue to stay on your path blessing the world with your knowledge. The world will eventually catch on! “Keep It Moving”read more

A Power House Teacher!!! Thanks to Mrs. Ortega and the 3 day course I am Eager to take the exam and this time I am so confident about it- I couldn’t say that before. She has so much knowledge and cares for her students. The pre-work and after class homework totally worth the time and effort. I am that person that earned the 2 year Associates Medical Billing and Coding Degree/ Summa Cum Laude. Took the board exam twice and failed. Through the university I learned countless office and AHIMA’s policies but no coding or exam prep. I am still paying the school’s debt and no medical billing and coding certifications yet. I wish I had known of MCA’s courses and save me time and money. I can’t wait to test and post an update. A big shout out to the MCA team as well Mrs. Landers, Mrs. Underwood, Mrs. Newbbie and Mrs. Belen were all so kind and helpful.read more

My wife and I recently took the MCA, CPC 3 day course in Dallas. We traveled all the way from Atlanta to attend this phenomenal event. When I tell you that this was one of the best investments of our money and time, I am not exaggerating!! Mrs. Ortega and her wonderful team of Belen, Angelica, Ladonna and Susan were beyond great. Words cannot express the feeling we have for them. I will not lie, the 3 days are challenging but so worth it! I am more than confident that my wife and I are overly prepared to take the CPC that we are scheduled for this upcoming Saturday, and we will pass it the first time!!! The energy of the class and the staff is so loving and helpful and inspiring. It’s like the family you didn’t know you had. If you are new in the industry or struggling to pass your CPC certification, YOU NEED TO BE HERE! You will not regret it. I will definitely be back for my COC, CRC, CPMA and the rest of the “alphabet soup”.Keep it moving!!!!read more

Mrs Ortega is a walking encyclopedia of medical coding knowledge. I attended her 3 day course in Orlando and it was intense. For the record I had no prior knowledge of this field. However after Mrs Ortega's class I feel I have a fighting chance of passing my CPC certification exam. Trust me the 3 day course is your best option. Mrs Ortega's teaching system is so on point it seems like she's pouring the information into your brain. you just need to pay attention and take notes. She really feels like your success is her success. Remember to complete your prework.read more

I researched many different programs since I do not have any experience or know anyone currently in this field. I chose the 3 day course with Mrs. Ortega and after completing the course I feel very confident in what I have learned. I appreciated her teaching style and willingness to help everyone. I have been raising kids for the last 19 years and have not been in a learning environment for many, many years so I was not very confident in my abilities to be able to absorb so much information in a short time but decided on day 2 to go ahead and sign up for the exam in 3 weeks because it was all clicking and making sense.

I did the 3 day course in Orlando this past weekend and it was life changing. I have had the goal of wanting to be coder for 2 years and currently in the medical field. I have tried classes with the AAPC and that didn't work. Then I did a class online with Penn Foster. It wasn't teaching me what I needed to know. As single mom I was desperate for change and even having experience in the medical field I wanted and need more. I came across a comment in facebook Group from the AAPC how this lady went to MCA. And she accomplished 3 credentials in 6 months. I was like no way. I read Mrs. Oretega reviews and watched her Youtube videos. All of them. I was like there is not one bad comment. I jump out in faith paid for class pack my bags and got to the next class. Which was Orlando Florida on 04/26/19. Mrs. Oretega is the most passionate teacher I have ever met in my entire life being 33 years old. She is straight to the point and she pushed me. She taught me discipline which is hard to do being a single mother and living everyday life. Words can't express how much I am grateful for the 3 day course. I couldn't have made a better sacrifice for my family and I. I know I will pass my CPC exam. This review is not even enough to express my experience. I pray you choose MCA and keep it moving to success. Thank you so much Mrs. Oretega and I pray God gives you what you gave me and more.read more

Mrs Ortega is the real deal... For the last couple of months I have been wanting to change my career. I always knew I wanted to do medical coding but didn’t want to spent all this money and all these months going to school when life is just so busy already . I did a lot of research on different schools in my area and even online classes but I kept getting disappointed with what I was seeing .. So one night, literally one week before Mrs Ortega was to held her 3 day course in Orlando I stumbled upon her program. After reading all the wonderful reviews and seeing her YouTube videos something inside of me told me to go for it and sign up! And boy I’m so glad I listened.. Mrs Ortega teaches with passion , she puts her whole heart into what she does... She lights a fire in you to go after the alphabet soup and have more credentials to your name.. Mrs Ortega is a leader , a strong women , your biggest cheerleader and your teacher ... Trust me you are going to be a believer the minute you meet her.read more

I was promised that through this 3-day course I will pass my CPC test and that is exactly what I got. The course is not a joke, it takes a lot of determination with less sleep. Ms. Ortega is compassionate and such a beautiful human being, but she can also be a beast in this 3-day course. She will do what it takes for you to pass that test. I will truly treasure the experience I had during this course, and the love that was given to me by Ms. Ortega. Take a leap of faith and you’ll soar through the test!read more

I took Ms. Ortega's 3-day Boot Camp mid-March in Dallas because I'd heard great things about it and of course, I was eager to pass my CPC exam on my first try. Well, let me tell you... the course is a real Boot Camp!! It's very intense and you really have to work hard, sleep very little and pay attention to everything Ms. Ortega says... in the end, you'll feel tired, but it will all be worth it!! I took my test last Saturday and today I got the awesome news that I passed the test on my first try with a score of 87%!!! I'm sure that without Ms. Ortega's teachings, I would've gotten lost in all the confusing terminology, double and triple guessing myself after each answer and would've never finished the test!! We all know some cases can be extremely confusing, but with Ms. Ortega's strategies, you'll be able to abstract the most important information and answer fast and accurately in order to "keep it going" and finish the test with enough correct answers to pass on your first try!! I had no previous coding experience and I just did!! Thank you, Ms. Ortega!! I sure hope to come back for more of your teachings to obtain more certifications!read more

It took me a while to do this because I wanted this review to be as complete as possible. I took my 3 day course in Dallas March 15-17 and it was such a great experience but it was definitely a time consuming process and a lot of information. I come from a different perspective because I never doubted this program or its intentions. I have learned to follow my instincts and I am truly happy I didn’t second guess this one because I took my exam 3 weeks after taking the course and I passed ON THE FIRST TRY and I got a 90%!!!! With so many positive reviews of this program I will put it out there that you get out of life what you put into it so don’t approach this program or the wonderful people behind it with negativity and expect to get a positive result🙏🏼you are only as blessed as you allow yourself to be and this program will definitely have you counting those blessings once you pass that exam!

I have spoken to a couple attendees from my class who have taken their CPC exam already and have stated that her strategies and tips WORK!! This 3-day course is brutal, starting with the pre-work all the way to the end of the 3rd day. How bad do YOU want it? You will get out of this as much as you put forth. If you are "IN", so is Mrs. Ortega! Utilize her wealth of knowledge to the fullest and LISTEN to what she teaches. She's a "tough cookie" but you have to be in order to deliver the amount of information taught in this course. She goes go out of her way to ensure everyone understands the concepts. I cannot WAIT to take my exam Saturday with a passing grade the FIRST time! 😉read more

Listen! Mrs. Ortega will light a fire in you and keep it burning! I've never been so motivated and excited to code after having taken the course with her. You feel pumped and ready to take it to the next level. I was ready to enroll in the next credentialing course as soon as I finished CPC with her. She knows this stuff and genuinely cares for her students. I like her spirit and her overall approach. Don't enroll if you're here to joke around....wrong class!! I can't stop talking about how great she is. She gives you what you need plus more. God has truly blessed her and she is being a blessing to her students. If you had ever considered enrolling for coding....this is it! Thank you Mrs. Ortega!read more

The best highlight is the Teacher, Mrs. Ortegashe is full of energy and she knows Coding!! So if you need help to pass your coding exams or understanding the guidelines this is where to go. Mrs. Ortega offers a 3 day course and it is intense but I have a better understanding and knowledge of what I need to pass my test and keep going up the ladder to complete other Certifications!!So to all Medical Coders Medical Coding Academy is the place to go!!

There are no words to describe this class other than AMAZING! I left with a renewed spirit and not only the confidence that I can pass this exam and will on the first try, but that I have truly taken the first steps in altering my life for the better. Mrs Ortega has such a humble & sweet spirit and really gives her all in these 3 days. The course was tough, you’re definitely pushed and challenged, but it’s well worth it in the end. I wasn’t sure what to expect but Mrs. Ortega will have you leaving on that 3rd day feeling well prepared. I can tell that all she does is truly out of LOVE! You can tell she loves what she does, loves to serve others & is truly gifted and anointed! I’m already looking forward to completely the next credential course with her. I would highly recommend (and already have to some family members) to take this course it truly is life changing!read more

If you’re interested in becoming a coder, see Mrs.Ortega. In the beginning, I was just like the rest of you who’s reading this. My thoughts were ‘this can’t be real, there’s no way you can become a coder from taking a class in 3 days & knowing anything you were taught’. I mean to go from having community colleges have a requirement of you taking 6-8 weeks worth of courses to become a coder to an academy that’s just 3 days, it’s inevitable to think you can’t become a coder within 3 days. Well guess what?! Mrs Ortega proved myself & the 40+ others that took the 3 day class with me in ATL wrong. She’s such an amazing person and teacher. She’s literally dedicated to her students. If we didn’t understand something, she went over it until we did; & if you were just one of the ones who still just couldn’t understand it, she took the time to give you one on one time to make sure you understood. Due to the current situation of not being able to take the test the next day after, you have to schedule them 1,2, or 3 weeks from the class dates or whenever AACP have test dates available, but please do not fret, you leave her class very well prepared with studying assignments to keep everything fresh. Get out of that space of fear people & see Mrs Ortega, I promise that you will not regret it. Best teacher I’ve had in awhile. Thank you Mrs Ortega, I wish you the absolute best & nothing but elevation for YOU & your COMPANY. I see nothing but good coming your way. XOXO. Raychelle 🙂read more

Awesome Class! I took this class over the weekend in Atlanta, and it was by far one of my best decisions ever. Even though the class was intense, it was filled with knowledge and life lessons. I must say Mrs.Ortega over exceeded my expectations and I'm very confident that I will pass my test. Thanks again

anyone interested in coding should absolutely attend MCA..the time spent was very well worth it. So excited about what I've learned I can't wait to take the CPC in 2 weeks and I'm absolutely sure I will pass after allowing Mrs Ortega to teach me everything she knows about coding. Mrs Ortega is very caring about her students she takes time to make sure everyone understands all things coding. Yes without a doubt she is the best. Love me some Mrs Ortega ❤️😁

She is a dedicated teacher that genuinely cares about her students, which was obvious from the moment we stepped in the door. I can’t say enough about her awesome teaching skills.

My wife took Mrs Ortega’s 3 day CPC over the weekend. She does not have Facebook but insisted on leaving a review- She can’t stop talking about how much she learned and how it was such a positive experience. The whole staff at Medical Coding Academy was outstanding, they truly care about your progress and succeeding in the industry. If you try anything, go for Mrs Ortega! You will NOT be disappointed- be ready to learn!Update- she passed her test the first time with an 87!!!

Mrs. Ortega and her team are uh-mazing! I had many reservations when it came to taking a class with Medical Coding Academy but after my first 3-Day CPC class, I am happy I took the challenge. It is A LOT of work over the three days but worth it. I feel incredibly prepared for my board exam and for "real world" coding. I most definitely would not pass without MCA and I look forward to CRUSHING my test in a few weeks! I will be back MCA, see you next time.

Mrs. Ortega is truly a blessing and a Godsend and we need more people like her in this world. I am so thankful to have her preparing me for the CPC Board Exam. There is NO WAY I AM NOT PASSING this test. So many people out there think they know everything and have all the answers. Be humble for once in your life. Stop wasting your time and take the 3-day course with Mrs. Ortega and see what the other thousands of students have been raving about. She is no joke. Do you want a job now or a job in a year? Do you want to take your Board Exam on the 4th day after the 3-day course or 4 weeks later? I would definitely recommend the 4th day. Please take advantage of the beautiful, remarkable, smart, and humble lady while she still has the ability to show the world what she knows. See you real soon in Dallas MCA.read more

The 3-Day Boot Camp in Dallas, Texas, was AMAZING!!! I cannot stress ENOUGH what an intense, emotional, blood-pumping, REWARDING experience it was to be blessed with the opportunity of attending. I barely know where to BEGIN!I feel it is an understatement to say that Mrs. Ortega is an AMAZING teacher and a BLESSING to the world!!! Her honesty, passion, heart, soul, drive, and SKILL are all so POWERFUL from the very MOMENT you're in her presence, and lasts for the entirety of the course and WELL BEYOND! Mrs. Ortega is a HIGHLY motivational FIRECRACKER, and will ALWAYS push you to do your best and remember the UNLIMITED potential for success YOU already possess inside!! YOU can accomplish more than you ever imagined, and with NO PRIOR EXPERIENCE required!!! If by this point in my review you're STILL having doubts on whether you should attend, whether or not you "REALLY can do this," then this is my advice to YOU: Follow ALL of Mrs. Ortega's instructions from the MOMENT you step into class. DON'T ask why, DON'T complain, DON'T stomp your feet, DON'T clench your fists tight and rage -- NOT even in your HEAD! I know this may be "easier said than done" for some people, but I PROMISE you, if you just do EVERYTHING she says, you are GUARANTEED to pass the AAPC exam ON YOUR FIRST TRY! YOU WILL! It's just GUARANTEED! Also, I would like to respectfully ask you to grab the nearest Mr. Clean Magic Eraser RIGHT NOW and ERASE the word "CAN'T" from your vocabulary ENTIRELY!!! By telling yourself that something is "IMPOSSIBLE," you're only hurting YOURSELF!!! Do NOT limit yourself like this!!!! If you go into this class with the words "I CAN DO ANYTHING" in BIG bright multi-colored neon lights on a BILLBOARD inside your brain, you WILL make things happen that you NEVER THOUGHT YOU COULD MAKE HAPPEN! I could go ON AND ON (and ON) about how much of an absolute BENEFIT TO YOUR LIFE it would be to JUST give Medical Coding Academy a CHANCE, but you would be reading FOR DAYS! Just TRUST ME ON THIS: DO IT!!!! Mrs. Ortega and the rest of the OUTSTANDING Medical Coding Academy staff will NOT let you down.read more

This class was truly intense, but very much worth it! Ms. Ortega is sincerely passionate about helping students pass the exam so a packet is sent to you before the class to help prepare you for this intense 3 day boot camp. Now I have to admit that I did not pass my exam on the 1st try and even thought about giving up. I had a lot going on personally, and this may have played a factor in my not passing...not sure. However, Ms. Ortega began to text and check on me and continued to encourage me. I scheduled my retake exam and went back to review my notes and had to forget about the initial fail. So the second go around, I passed!! I am now making plans to take a second class with Medical Coding Academy because I believe they can truly help me get to where I want to be in this field. Thank you Ms. Ortega for being who you are and caring!read more

I had taken a TJC coding course and failed by 10 pts on the first try😑 BUT. I decided to give the 3 day boot camp a try Dec 7-9, 2018 and I PASSED my boards Dec 10,2018 🎉😆 I am truly grateful ❤️ You will NOT regret taking Mrs. Ortega 3 day boot camp course!!

This past Monday was my 7th attempt at the national AAPC CPC exam. Instead of giving up after the first 6 tries I gave Medical Coding Acedemy a chance. I did the 3 day boot camp and took the test on the 4th day and PASSED with an 87! Yet the best part is before the bootcamp I only knew coding in part but after Mrs. Ortega's class I could see it as a whole picture! I FEEL SO BLESSED to have found this bootcamp and firmly believe I would not have passed without it

I passed! 🙂 All thanks to your program and excellent teaching! All of your assistants were amazing and everyone was so nice and helpful. I have already referred two of my friends to you and many more are about to follow. I will be singing your praises to anyone who will listen. Thank you so much. I am definitely a skeptic turned in to a believer. I really needed good news this week. I was worried during the test that my mind would get in my way. My grandmother was sick during this time. She passed away on the 12th. I got to see her that morning. She passed away that night. I beat myself up the entire weekend wondering if I was doing the right thing, but my grandmother would have wanted me to go. That is just the type of person she is. She was 90. She had a full life. I hate that I can't tell her in person I passed because she knew how hard I had worked all year to pass this test, but I am hoping she knows. 🙂 This program is what I needed to pass. I only wish I would have done it sooner! If I knew about it before I can only imagine how many certifications I would have by now thanks to this program and your excellent teaching style. It is very rare to meet someone like you who knows how to break down concepts like these for people to understand easily and to have passion about people the way you do! You are exactly what this world needs more of and I hope you continue to spread your knowledge and your caring heart with many more! Thank you, thank you for everything! I definitely want more certifications, but I have to figure out how to pay for them first. A work in progress I am, but thanks to you and your team I am one step closer...... 🙂read more
