With over37,000 new jobs expected in this field by 2020, the rapidlyexpanding healthcare industry relies on these professionals.

The Professional Medical Coding and Billing program helpsstudents prepare to pass the Certified Coding Associate (CCA) andCertified Professional Coder (CPC) certification exams. Studentslearn healthcare information management, reimbursementmethodologies, medical terminology, anatomy, pathophysiology,and pharmacology, among other topics, as well as studying theICD-10, CPT, and HCPCS code sets in an extensive practicalsection, which gives them valuable hands-on experience beforegraduation. In addition to one-on-one support from experiencedinstructors throughout the course and access to personalizedgraduate support after graduation, students receive textbooks, acomplete set of industry code books, and access to an onlinereference library.

Professional Medical Coding & Billing � Professional Medical coding and Billing online certificate

What Employers Are looking For:Employers must transition to ICD-10 codes on October 1,2014, but up until that point, they’ll still be using ICD-9 codes.Most likely, they will be dual coding (coding information withboth ICD-9 and ICD-10 codes) for several months prior to theimplementation date to identify any potential problems andensure coder readiness, but payers will only reimburse claimsthat use ICD-9 codes through September 30, 2014, and onlythose using ICD-10 codes beginning October 1.

It’s extremely important that you have a good understandingof this when you’ll be looking for a job. Many trainingprograms for new coders take about a year to complete, and ifyou’re going to be done training and job hunting beforeOctober 1, 2014, employers will expect you to know ICD-9codes.

Getting certified:Credentials are important in the medical coding world.

The two most recognized, entry-level coding credentials arethe Certified Coding Associate (or CCA, offered by AHIMA) andthe Certified Professional Coder (or CPC, offered by theAmerican Academy of Professional Coders, or AAPC). It’simportant to determine which exam you’ll be taking to ensureyour training program prepares you for the right code set.

• the ccA certification exam will transition from Icd-9to Icd-10 codes on April 1, 2014.

• the cPc certification exam will transition from Icd-9to Icd-10 codes on January 1, 2015.

If you’re planning to earn your credential prior to these dates,you’ll need to know the ICD-9 codes.

Getting Educated: Icd-9 vs. Icd-10Regardless of the code set your initial education emphasizes,foundational training will be used throughout your career.

It’s important to note that any medical coding educationprogram you choose should include a significant amount oftraining in biomedical sciences (anatomy, pathophysiology,pharmacology, and medical terminology), healthcaredocumentation, and other foundational subjects. Theseconcepts are crucial to coding in both ICD-9 and ICD-10.

The new ICD-10 codes will be much more specific than theICD-9 codes. there are approximately 14,000 Icd-9diagnosis codes and over 69,000 Icd-10 diagnosiscodes. All of those new codes require you to have a betterunderstanding of the medical terminology, anatomy, etc.behind the diagnoses in order to assign the right code.

Getting Prepared: transitioning to Icd-10You will be well served by choosing an education programthat offers an ICD- 10 introduction or transition course.

If your training timeline would be best served by a programthat emphasizes the ICD-9 code set, the natural next step isensuring you’ll be prepared to transition to ICD-10 in thecoming months.

An advantage to choosing a school that trains you in both ICD-9 and ICD-10 is that you can enter the workforce ready to helpwith dual coding efforts. As many employers will be coding inboth ICD-9 and ICD-10 in the months leading up to themandated transition, this can help you stand out from otherjob applicants as you’re moving from education toemployment.

the program includes:• Comprehensive ICD-9 training – In accordance with AHIMA

recommendations, Career Step is training coders on the ICD-9 code set.

• Free ICD-10 FastTrack course – All new students will receivea free ICD-10 FastTrack course (available Summer 2013) toensure that you’re ready for the new ICD-10 certifications,dual coding efforts, and the October 1, 2014, transitiondeadline.

• AHIMA-approved curriculum – The Career Step Inpatientand Outpatient Medical Coding and Billing program is oneof the only online courses approved by AHIMA, which meansit’s been evaluated by the largest medical coding industryassociation and they’ve determined that it prepares you forcertification and employment.

• Hands-on experience – We’ve built both our ICD-9 and ICD-10 courses on employer recommendations, and you’llpractice your coding skills on genuine medical records andreports with 3M encoder software to ensure you’re ready forcertification and employment upon graduation.

• Comprehensive curriculum – Our comprehensive curriculumwill teach you both outpatient and inpatient coding, makingyou more flexible and marketable after graduation.

You may be familiar with the fact that the

healthcare industry will be transitioning

from the ICD-9-CM code set. These codes

are used by medical coders as well as a

number of other healthcare professionals

for tracking and reimbursement purposes.

Healthcare facilities must transition to

ICD-10 on October 1, 2014. This deadline

has been mandated by the Centers for

Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS),

and at that point all healthcare facilities

must begin using ICD-10 codes when they

submit claims to insurance companies and

Medicare/Medicaid. This is a monumental

undertaking for the healthcare industry,

and it naturally begs the question,“Should

I choose a training program that teaches

me ICD-9 or ICD-10 codes?”

These standards require students not only toacquire core knowledge in history and social science, but also to developthe critical thinking skills that historians and social scientists employ tostudy the past and its relationship to the present. It is possible to spend alifetime studying history and not learn about every significant historicalevent; no one can know everything. However, the State Board hopes thatduring their years of formal schooling, students will learn to distinguishthe important from the unimportant, to recognize vital connectionsbetween the present and the past, and to appreciate universal historicalthemes and dilemmas.

They trace the riseof democratic ideas and develop an understanding of the historical rootsof current world issues, especially as they pertain to internationalrelations. They extrapolate from the American experience thatdemocratic ideals are often achieved at a high price, remain vulnerable,and are not practiced everywhere in the world.

General InformationPolicies

Admission EligibilityFormal admission to the university is not required to enroll in courses offeredthrough the College of Extended Learning. However, registration for coursesmay be limited to those who have completed certain prerequisites, or who candemonstrate to the instructor’s satisfaction equivalent preparation for upper-division work.

Resident CSUSB students may augment their campus studies with ExtendedLearning coursework, provided they do not exceed university study-loadlimitations. Under the same conditions, coursework from the regular on-campus program is available to Extended Learning students through OpenUniversity without formal admission to the university.

Auditing coursesStudents electing to audit a course are exempt from examinations and are notformally evaluated. (A transcript is not established.) Students may change from“credit” to “audit,” or vice versa, at any time prior to the third meeting of a full-term course. Students auditing a course are subject to the same fee structure ascredit students and regular class attendance is expected. These guidelines alsoapply to Open University Students.

standardsExtended Learning coursework adheres to the academic standards of theuniversity. All of the activities usually associated with college coursework areintegral parts of the Extended Learning instructional program, whenappropriate.

The grademay be removed and replaced by a letter grade by completing the workrequired as negotiated between instructor and student prior to coursecompletion, provided the work is completed within one year. It is the student’sresponsibility to bring to the instructor’s attention for approval problems thatmight justify a grade of Incomplete.

course numbers/creditsCSUSB academic credit courses are typically “measured” in quarter units.Academic credit represents a measure of time, with one quarter unit of creditequivalent to 8.33 hours of instruction. (To convert quarter units to theequivalent measure in semester units, multiply by 2/3.)

ExAMPlEsQuarter Units Semester Units

1 2/32 1 1/33 24 2 2/35 3 1/36 4

Extended Learning courses numbered in the 300s, 400s, 500s and 600s aredrawn from the regular upper-division and graduate curricula of the University(600-level courses are designed for graduate students specifically). Amaximum of 36 quarter units of credit earned in such courses may be acceptedin a baccalaureate degree program and 13 quarter units toward a master’sprogram at CSUSB.

Extended Learning professional development courses (those with prefixesother than EENC or EECR numbered 1000 or above), are developed to meetspecial needs of particular groups or communities. These classes conferextension credit, denoting an investment of time and accomplishmentcomparable to that required in established university courses. This credit isgenerally honored by school districts as evidence of professional advancementfor salary increments/increases on the pay scale. Teachers are encouraged toconsult with their school districts/employers in advance to determine if theircourse choices will be accepted toward salary advancement. Credits earned inthese professional-level courses are not applicable to credentials or degreeprograms. Moreover, courses with prefixes of EENC, EECR or academic prefixesfollowed by course numbers of 1000 and above are not applicable tocredentials or degree programs.

To use acceptable Extended Learning credit in a degree program, studentsmust ultimately make formal application for admission to the university. Onlyupon matriculation is the University Admissions Office authorized to make anofficial evaluation concerning the applicability of an individual’s accumulatedExtended Learning and other credits transfer, to a particular degree. TheCollege of Extended Learning will, however, refer students to departmentalacademic advisors regarding the applicability of specific courses to a student’sdegree objective.

A cumulative permanent transcript of allCEU study is provided to Extended Learning students and is available from theStudent Records Office. CEU credit is not applicable toward degrees, credentialsor credential renewal. Some relicensing boards may require that renewalinformation be expressed in Continuing Education Contact Hours (CECH). TenContinuing Education Contact Hours are equivalent to one ContinuingEducation Unit. Each hour of instruction equals one CECH or .1 CEU.
