In the ever-evolving world of healthcare, medical coding plays a pivotal role in ensuring accurate billing, insurance claims, and patient records. But mastering the art of medical coding and achieving the coveted CPC (Certified Professional Coder) certification can be a complex journey. That’s where the Medicon Medical Coding Institute steps in, offering aspiring coders a clear path to success.
Medical coding is the transformation of healthcare diagnosis, procedures, medical services, and equipment into universal medical alphanumeric codes. The diagnoses and procedure codes are taken from medical record documentation, such as transcription of physician’s notes, laboratory and radiologic results, are submitted to health insurance companies for reimbursement.
The CPC Certification, offered by the American Academy of Professional Coders (AAPC), is a highly recognized credential in the medical coding field. This certification demonstrates expertise in accurately assigning medical codes for diagnoses, procedures, and services. It signifies a thorough understanding of the official coding guidelines and regulations, as well as the ability to navigate through complex medical records and documentation.
The Certified Professional Coder (CPC) credential is the most recognized medical coding certification in the healthcare industry. Employers value individuals who demonstrate proficiency and commitment to excellence through professional certification.
To earn the CPC® credential, you must demonstrate:
Join Training program for both Fresher and Experienced Individual's.
The CPC examination tests your ability to correctly apply CPT®, HCPCS Level II procedure and supply codes, and ICD-10-CM diagnosis codes used to report professional medical services. You also must demonstrate knowledge of proper modifier use, coding guidelines, and regulatory rules.

Medical terminology is the language of healthcare. It is used to describe diseases, conditions, procedures, and medications. Medical coders need to have a strong understanding of medical terminology in order to accurately code medical records.
Some of the key topics covered in a medical terminology course include:
Some of the key topics covered in an anatomy course include:
ICD-10-CM (International Classification of Diseases, 10th Revision, Clinical Modification) is a coding system used to classify diseases and conditions. Medical coders use ICD-10-CM codes to report the patient’s primary and secondary diagnoses to insurance companies. An ICD-10-CM course will teach students how to use the ICD-10-CM coding system to code a variety of diseases and conditions. Students will also learn about the ICD-10-CM coding guidelines, which are used to ensure that codes are used correctly and consistently.
CPT-4 (Current Procedural Terminology) is a coding system used to classify medical procedures and services. Medical coders use CPT-4 codes to report the procedures and services that were performed on the patient to insurance companies. A CPT-4 course will teach students how to use the CPT-4 coding system to code a variety of medical procedures and services. Students will also learn about the CPT-4 coding guidelines, which are used to ensure that codes are used correctly and consistently.
HCPCS (Healthcare Common Procedure Coding System) is a coding system used to classify medical products and services that are not covered by the CPT-4 coding system. Medical coders use HCPCS codes to report these products and services to insurance companies,
An HCPCS course will teach students how to use the HCPCS coding system to code a variety of medical products and services. Students will also learn about the HCPCS coding guidelines, which are used to ensure that codes are used correctly and consistently.
