Medical Coding Training
Ticket to a Great Career in Healthcare Industry

Introduction
Medical coders per se do not deal with life and
death situations like doctors do, but they sure
have very responsible roles in the healthcare
industry. They are responsible for the
reimbursement of accurate payments to hospitals
from insurance companies. Medical coding is a
highly technical field and it is necessary to
undergo professional medical coding training with
on-job training to be able to carve out a
successful career in the field. There are several
institutions of good repute offer medical coding
courses for students from science, especially
life science backgrounds. However, being from a
science background is not a pre-requisite but is
advantageous for medical coding.

The Need for Medical Coding Training
In medical coding, the job of a coder is to
assign standardized codes to medical services
provided by healthcare centers to patients. In
other words, their task is to convert the
services into codes. These codes are used by
insurance companies and other third parties to
pay for the services provided by the hospitals to
patients. After pursuing a medical coding course,
it is possible to find employment in surgical
care centers, healthcare facilities and
hospitals. In addition, those who undergo
credible medical coding training can also work on
freelance basis or set up their own companies
that offer medical coding solutions to hospitals
that outsource the job. Most high end hospitals
have their own in-house medical coders who work
exclusively for them.

Medical Coding Training Institutes in Hyderabad
There are many openings for jobs in medical
coding and thus there is a proportionately high
need for medical coding training institutes in
Hyderabad. This is because the city has over 120
recognized hospitals and a large number of other
healthcare facilities that require the services
of certified medical coding professionals.
5
Outsourcing of Medical Coding
Most international hospitals outsource their
medical coding assignments to countries such as
India and therefore, many companies have come up
that offer medical coding services to such
hospitals. The market for medical coding thus is
not just local or national, but also
international. Medical coding training is thus
beneficial because it helps ensure a job in
healthcare facilities, doctor's offices, surgical
centers, apart from offering the opportunity to
work from home on a freelance basis.

Medical Coding Training Basics
In a medical coding course, students are taught
on how to review patients charts, to itemize the
medical services offered by hospitals and to
assign codes to each of the services. It is their
responsibility to assign the right codes (CPT and
ICD codes) because payments are released to
hospitals by insurance agencies based on these
codes. If they assign the wrong code for a
particular service, the hospital ends up getting
paid higher or lower than the actual price for
that particular service. Therefore, medical
coding training equips students with the right
temperament for handling such responsible roles.
Medical coding is more of a backend technical
profession and is responsible for the
reimbursements of funds by insurance companies to
hospitals.
