Program Overview

Program Description:

Managing vast amounts of medical insurance and billing information is critical to the success of any healthcare organization. Berkeley College offers degree and certificate programs to prepare 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) certificate program are required to participate in the Certified Professional Biller examination (CPB) through the AAPC or the Certified Billing and Coding Specialist examination (CBCS) through the National Healthcareer Association (NHA)— both are nationally accepted standards of achievement in the administrative part of the field. The certificate program focuses primarily on medical billing pursuits such as an introduction to coding, reimbursement, legal and ethical requirements, and the medical billing cycle in the professional or outpatient setting.
