Certified Outpatient Coding (COC®) Certificate Online Course and Exam Prep

Mrs. Ortega’s online medical coding course from start to finish, it was clear how much thought, effort, and heart she put into every lesson. Her teaching style was clear, encouraging,... read more and incredibly supportive — even through a screen, you could feel her dedication. She broke down complex topics in a way that made them manageable and even enjoyable. She instilled confidence and a real sense of purpose in her students. Mrs. Ortega is not only a fantastic instructor but also a kind and compassionate guide. I’m so grateful to have learned from her. Also the communication with other staff members and their response to emails are just always a breeze. They have great communication

I just completed Ms. Ortega's 3-day CPC Exam prep last night and it was extraordinary. She is an exceptional teacher with a heart as big as Texas! I don't... read more know how she managed to fit so much course material into those 3 days, but she made it happen. She is prepared beyond belief with slides and lectures that explain medical coding in a way that even someone brand new to coding can understand. She expects her students to be as prepared to learn as she is to teach, so DO THE PRE-WORK! Once you register for the class, you will receive a packet of instructions from Medical Coding Academy. This is called the pre-work. It does take many hours to complete, so don't wait until the last minute to start. It may seem like a hassle while you are working on it, but it is definitely worth it! I believe it is the second reason I got so much out of he class. The first reason is Ms. Ortega herself. She seems to have 2 passions in life, one for coding and one for teaching. This combination makes her a clear choice when deciding who to entrust with your career education. I first met Ms. Ortega by pure luck. She just happened to be the instructor for an ICD-10 class I attended a few years ago. I knew then that whenever I decided to sit for the CPC exam, she was the only one I would trust to help me prepare. I am so thrilled that she has taken her class on the road and that I was finally able to attend! I am registered to take the CPC exam in less than 3 weeks. I'll be doing the homework she gave me and feel confident that I can pass. Thank you, Ms. Ortega. You've been a blessing to me!

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,... read more 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 :)

Mrs. Ortega not only did I love your class. I learned so much about CPC this weekend, Thank you!!! Mrs. Ortega is so humble and cares about her students.

Holly Witherow I recently invested in a three-day course at the Medical Coding Academy to take the CPC exam. The course offered a no non-sense approach of systematically approaching the CPC... read more exam. The presentation delivers information that allows you to feel more confident in taking the exam. The instructor also linked CPT, ICD-10CM, and HCPCS in a cohesive format to better prepare your approach in taking the exam since time is of the essence and there is a lot to read. In the past, I have had many questions about medical coding and each training day resolved many of my past questions. The organization cares about your test outcome and your personal, professional success. The three days are intense but worth your time. Not only do I recommend everyone to take this course but if you really want to be certified DO NOT THINK TWICE. You will be glad you did it. By the way, I did not get pay for my opinion, nor am I related to anyone in the organization. I am just a student who took the course and wish somebody would have told me about Medical Coding Academy sooner.

I just finished the 3 day CPC class; I passed the CPC!! I am very impressed! Ms. Ortega is the absolutely the best teacher you will ever encounter and if... read more you want to get certified then look no further because she is the best out there! Thank you Ms. Ortega I will be back for sure �
