  • I recommend the Medical Coding Academy for a number of reason.Upon signing up for the CPC (Certified Professional Coders) Class I watched Mrs.Ortega’s YouTube videos and with doing that I... read more just new I had to take her class. Mrs. Ortega is more than knowledgeable about all subject matters in regards to the Medical Coding and any and all of the classes that are offered by the Medical Coding Academy. Mrs. Ortega is a kind , smart, motivated, God-sent woman that that is cheering for everyone to be great and succeed at their endeavors.. Mrs. Ortega will make sure you have a understanding of all subject matter because she more than cares that you have a grasp of all the material at hand. In the 3 day Coding class there were many people that walk in to class of many different walks of life and careers.But while in that class Mrs.Ortega is able to project a understanding of any and all subject matter to the whole class. Mrs.Ortega makes sure that you are more that prepared for for the class, the state board test and real life on the job functions .I actually went to college for Medical billing and Coding and obtain Associates Degree in Medical Billing and Coding as well as a Bachelors in Biology and Chemistry. But I learned far more in the 3 day boot camp class offered by the Medical Coding Academy which is owned by Mrs. Ortega then I learned while obtaining my associates,to were I felt more than comfort taking the state board test immediately after the class. I took the test on July 30, 2018 and I passed the CPC with a 90% out of 100.Since July 2018 I have taken the following classes thru the Medical Coding Academy - Certified Outpatient Coder Class-COC Certified Professional Medical Auditor Class- CPMA Certified Professional Biller Class -CPB Certified Professional Coder Class -CPC Certified Professional Compliance Officer Class - CPCO Certified Professional Practice Manager Class - CPMA Certified Risk Adjustment Class - CRC. I have obtained the following certification from taking taken the classes offered by by Mrs . Ortega and the Excellent organization of the Medical Coding Academy . CPC COC CRC CPCO CPMA CPPM I am scheduled to take the CPB ( Billing Test) and the CDEO ( Documentation) Test in January 2021. I want to one day have my own medical coding and billing office. So these class and certifications are directly in line with my future becoming even more a success. Being that I have worked in the pharmacy field for over twenty years but the work that I do and have done in the pharmacy field also intermingled with the medical field with the clinical work , coding , and billing . Taking all the classes and obtain the various different certifications through the Medical Coding Academy has allowed me to have so , so , many options to outpouring all my different degrees as well as certifications in the pharmacy field , the medical arena , and the world 🌍 of medical billing and coding. I now have options , I can work for someone else, I can work for myself, and/ or I can do both. I have opened up a gift that keeps on giving with numerous possibilities. Without having this education I would not be able to fulfill the dream of opening my own business .The Medical Coding Academy help put my goals as a business owner in perspective. I am now the owner of Rare Brilliance LLC, which will obtain work to provide the following- * Pharmacy Services ( Pre Authorizations and Prior Authorizations) * As well as services regarding medical billing and coding * Plus consulting on various medical and pharmacy insurances. * Tutoring on subjects regarding biology, chemistry, some advanced math , and pharmacy technician classes. The Medical Coding Academy has allowed me to work in a arena that I love, I love to be help others, inform patient’s of their options, and assist in the education of both young and older students . The Medical Coding had supplied a whole new word of education regarding the medical field as a whole. To all of you that are on the fence about take a class with the Medical Coding Academy , make a investment in yourself to where you can go work at any doctor’s office, hospital, or even go to work for yourself and start your own business.Mrs.Ortega is a superior educator as well as all of the other 5 educators that are on this panel of educating. Choosing the Medical Coding Academy will be one of the best decisions that you will make in your life time. You will gain so many more valuable skills , knowledge , understandings and a overall better form of yourself . To where you will never regret choosing the Medical Coding Academy. Mrs. Ortega and her staff are amazing and will make sure that you understand any and all subjects matter of any and all classes that you take. Thank You Medical Coding Academy Your a Rockstar!!!!!!

  • Hello fellow Coders, future coders and MCA family! I have some great news that I would like to share that might encourage someone that’s reading this post. Before I share... read more the news I have to tell the complete story as to why this is a big deal for me. Many of you know or have read my previous post about my recent success ( taking Mrs. Ortega’s 3 Day CPC prep course and passing the board exam on the 4th day ) through the Medical Coding Academy in January of this year. I had shared a little bit of my story about how I had taken the CPC exam a couple of times ( prior to attending Mrs. Ortega’s 3 Day CPC course ) and failed. What I didn’t say, was that i had already been working as a Medical Coder for roughly a year and a half. When I got hired I was made aware that I must have my coding certification within 1 year of employment or I would loose my job because the organization only wanted individuals that are certified . I was also made aware that once I became certified I would get a promotion. I took on the challenge because I was certain that I could get my certification within 1 year. At that time I was enrolled in a coding program at a local technical college. When I took the CPC exam for the first time and failed I was about 6 months into employment. This happened at the end of the year which meant tests were limited and most test sites were already at capacity. I waited about 3-4 more months before I re-took the CPC exam the second time and failed. At that point the pressure was really weighing heavy on me because I knew that I had to get that certification in order to keep my job and I was rapidly approaching my 1 year of employment/deadline. At my 1 year evaluation I was given an extension on getting my certification. That’s when I sought the Medical Coding Academy. You know the rest of the story but, I honestly feel like MCA was a blessing to me and I am/will be forever grateful the experience and the time/effort that Mrs. Ortega puts into her students. The great news that I want to share with you all is that I recently received my promotion and my supervisor gave me a “ shout out” this week at our morning huddle for my name being listed under the “Magna Cum Laude “ section of this months AAPC magazine ( was going to add the pic that I took of my name in the magazine but I don’t see the option to add an attachment/picture). It was a great feeling to be recognized and well worth the stress and anxiety. Lol.. Sorry, for the extensive post but, I felt like it was necessary and I hope that my story might encourage someone who’s in doubt or feeling discouraged. I also want to mention that I recently registered for the CPMA ( Certified Professional Medical Auditor) through MCA. Wish me luck and stay tuned for another successful story. Be blessed y’all!!

  • 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... read more 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!! 😃

  • Completed Mrs. Ortega’s 3 day CPC coding class and it was awesome. She makes coding easier and more understandable by bringing it down to lamens terms. I now have codes... read more memorized I didn’t even know about before I came. I definetely feel more relaxed about taking my test. The class was tough and the the homework even tougher but totally worth every minute of lost sleep. Mrs. Ortega rocks!!!
