So, You
Want To Be a Medical Coder And Start Your Own Services From
Home?
CMS
and OIG
Another important concern in the medical coding
and medical billing realm is the concern of CMS (previously
HCFA) and the Office of Inspector General (OIG) regarding
healthcare provider's in-house compliance plan.

 Put
Your Success Within
Reach!!! Certification
is very important step. NHA offers two paths toward certification:
their National Certification Exam for
graduates, and their Home Study Certification Program
for experienced medical coders and billers.
Compliance
The purpose of the compliance plan is to
establish voluntary compliance programs that meet all HIPAA
regulations. Every healthcare provider participating in federal
programs like Medicare and Medicaid should eagerly embrace
these compliance plans and help their medical coding and
billing staff members to learn, understand, and adhere to
them.
