NCMC’s Medical Insurance and Billing program is designed to prepare individuals to work in an administrative role as a medical insurance and billing specialist. As the act of properly filing insurance claims by health care providers takes on more importance, it is necessary to understand the terminology and processes used by the insurance carriers, as well as the medical procedures. The program prepares the student to process information successfully. A certificate is awarded to those who successfully complete the required courses. (Credits from this program may be transferred into the Medical Assisting Program (A.A.S.), Medical Assisting certificate program and the Medical Transcriptionist certificate program. |
