Before you buy: what’s included, and what your office adds
How it works: self-paced online lessons with short videos and a quiz after each lesson. There is no live class or instructor. Learners can send a question to our trainers from any lesson (we answer within 2 business days) or call (916) 770-4050, Monday to Friday, 8am to 6pm Pacific. Each person who passes gets a dated certificate of completion. It is not continuing-education (CE) credit.
The lessons teach the billing job, not a specific software. Show each new biller where every step lives in your own practice management system, and share your payer contracts, fee schedule and billing policies.
Who it’s for
- New billing staff and front desk team members at medical practices.
- Dental offices that bill medical plans and want the medical side explained.
- Office managers who supervise billing and want to understand the workflow.
Licensing and certification
No license is required by law to work as a medical biller. This program awards a certificate of completion from Comodo Technology. It is not a coding certification such as AAPC’s CPC or AHIMA’s CCS, and it is not CE credit.
CPT codes and descriptions belong to the American Medical Association, so the lessons explain how CPT works without reprinting codes. Your office needs its own licensed, current-year code books or billing software.
