Medical Insurance, Billing, and Coding
Keeping a healthy bottom line for healthcare organizations.
Medical insurance, billing, and coding are critical components of the healthcare system. Without either field, the healthcare industry would be unable to efficiently transmit important data, and healthcare providers would find it difficult to be paid for their services. Berkeley College's degree program in Medical Insurance, Billing, and Coding prepares students to manage vast amounts of medical insurance and billing information. This program prepares students with the important business and technology skills needed for positions in medical insurance, billing, and coding. Courses provide students with the required knowledge and skills to become nationally certified.
Graduates of the Medical Insurance Billing and Coding (MIBC) degree program are eligible to participate in field-specific certification examinations.
Although certification is not required to work in most states, employers prefer to hire certified Medical Insurance, Billing, and Coding graduates.
