  • Just wanted to thank the Jedi CodeMaster Ms. Ortega – what a GREAT 3 day class you presented in San Diego (May 12-14, 2017). A little about myself, I... read more am a self employed business person and have no experience in the medical coding industry. I knew about the profession and like the idea that you can become a remote coders once you build enough experience. Heard there is a demand for this profession thru friends and websites. I was planning to take an online program or classes at a vocational school on medical coding. I did some research. What I found out worried me. Most of the respondents said that after taking there classes, they still didn’t feel confident about taking the credential exams or were more confused about coding before going to these schools. I even had a friend, who is now a CPC Coder; took him about 5 times to finally pass the exam. I asked my friend what was the challenge and he said it was the time. Could never finish all the questions in time. That’s when I realized I needed to find a school that also teaches test strategies and time management to tackle this exam. I googled “Medical Coding with Test Prep” and Medical Coding Academy shows up as one of the results. That’s when I discovered the You Tube videos Ms. Ortega put on her website regarding all that is wrong with the curriculums of other schools and why so many students were frustrated. That convinced me that Medical Coding Academy was the answer to my prayers. Was able to sign up for the class in my home town of San Diego. (Check out her YouTube Videos) If you do decide to take the CPC 3 Day course, be prepared to do the pre-work and don’t come to the class with some lame excuse you didn’t finish it. She will get on you for not doing it not because she wants it done but you will get lost the minute she starts the lecture. Not only that, you will slow the class down because you will be asking questions like “what do you mean by - “see code 99655, or “- No Units”. That wasn’t in my book - that’s because those were the pre-work notes you had to write in the books before going to the class. You will be doing about 15 to 25 hours (depends on how fast you can highlite and handwrite) of pre-work organizing your 3 books (ICD-10, CPT and HCPCS) with Ms. Ortega’s tabbing system, highlites of key words and hand written pre-notes. WARNING: If you don’t do this, you are just wasting your time and money and won’t learn anything. DO THE PRE-WORK!!! She does not waste time and gets right down to teaching exam techniques that will get you thru the exam and finish all the questions within the 5 hours and 40 min. Along the way, she has teaching moments that will help you once you get a job as a coder. Once you finish her 3 day lecture and decide when you want to take the exam, the Academy gives you more homework in preparation for the exam. Ms. Ortega won’t leave you hanging and recommends you take the exams A.S.A.P. so you don’t forget the techniques she has taught you. So weather you take it 2, 3 or 4 weeks from the day you finished the lectures, she will have a review outline schedule for you. That was just icing on the cake for me :-) BOTTOM LINE: I highly recommend her class - this is from someone who has no experience in the field. I feel confident that I can pass this exam not from memorizing everything but from organizing all the resources in the 3 books in such a way that you can find the resources quickly and not get stuck on a question. Planning to take the CPC exam 4 weeks from now. TRUST what Jedi CodeMaster Ortega teaches you and you too will feel the confidence in tackling the exam. I plan to take her classes in the future for the CIC and COC Good luck and God Bless. Vince M.

  • I completed the 3-day CPC course in August and it was one of the best decisions I have made. Mrs. Ortega is passionate about helping people change their lives... read more and is so knowledgeable on all things coding related. Her ability to teach is outstanding! I did a lot of research by checking the reviews and watching her YouTube videos, and they are all 5 star which is a pretty remarkable feat in this day and age. I took my exam one week after the class and passed! Thank you Mrs. Ortega and MCA for a wonderful experience!

  • The online was AMAZING!! I loved it!! My friend and I (Lori) both signed up and took the program. We took our test this past Saturday. We both finished in... read more 5 hours!!! 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!!!! Again, THANK YOU, THANK YOU, THANK YOU!!!!!!🎉

  • Update 1/26 I PASSED.. on the FIRST try!!! ************** I just finished Ms Ortega 3 day class & took the exam on the 4th day. And if I can do this... read more at 7 months pregnant, anyone can! First of all, I know I passed! How? Because of her anointed teaching! It was a ton of hard work & long days, but it was also really fun and absolutely worth it! Ms Ortega literally runs on adrenaline.. while we're taking bathroom breaks, she is there helping. She doesn't use the bathroom or eat AT ALL so she is 100% committed to her students! That is pure dedication & it takes a very blessed person to do that! She not only teaches how to use your books to pass the exam, but also how to apply her method as a real "go-to" coder. She's truly amazing! I went in nervous and left confident! If you're on the fence, jump it & get to Ms Ortega class asap! You will NOT regret it! And you will have made a friend in the process �. P.S. Do the prework & homework. You won't do well without it being done �. There's a system to the madness, I promise! Take a leap of faith & just DO IT! You won't regret it & wish you had done it sooner! I'll definitely be taking more of her courses to earn my "alphabet soup"!

  • 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... read more 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. Thank you Mrs. Ortega for your time, patience and caring for your students. Update 4/29/2019 - Passed my CPC exam
