In the online Certified Medical Administrative Assistant (CMAA) with Medical Billing and Coding course, you will learn what is required to succeed in the medical profession by gaining premium skills and credentialing through end-to-end patient care. A CMAA knows how to check in patients, verify insurance, and schedule appointments. The medical billing and coding certification enables you to take those services and translate them into accurate, billable codes.

This combined CMAA and medical billing and coding program curriculum offers valuable training in legal, ethical, and regulatory concepts central to this field, including HIPAA compliance, official coding guidelines, and third-party payer requirements. You will understand front-office administration and all phases of the revenue cycle—from patient registration to reimbursement and collections. You will also learn medical terminology as you study word parts and the structures and functions of the human body.
