This course is a continuation of Medical Coding I, the students will use the ICD-9-CM to find the primary and secondary diagnoses and the CPT to appropriately bill the office calls and procedures encountered in the office or outpatient facility. The HCPCS will be used to code and bill supplies, medicines, durable medical equipment, pathology and laboratory reports, etc. Upon completion, the students will have obtained knowledge about coding and billing, as well as any encounter a patient may have in a doctor’s office, with an ambulance service, outpatient center or any facility other than a hospital.
