Introduction
The Radiology medical coding course will establish the basics of medical coding are in place before focusing on the specifics involved with coding medical claims in the Radiology setting.

The Institute's Radiology Coding Course will be a government licensed program for the winter quarter 2011. We will touch on Stark and also do some through review of Medicare and what is ahead. I will have you spend time on CPT, ICD and HCPCS but you will work at your own pace. This online course is designed to be a bit more laid back than the traditional classroom and I hope to keep it this way. Instructors for the radiology program can be contacted day or night for questions you may have.

Lesson Preparation
Everything is now available to the student online.  Each student is assigned a course instructor who will work with them through out duration of the program.  There may be some offline assignments associated with the course work based on quiz performance.  The curriculum is self paced.  The student has up to six months to finish the assignments, online quizzes and take the final exam.

Final Exam & Grading
The final exam is online.  The student has six hours to complete the exam once it is started.  A score of 76 or better is required to pass.
