Medical Billing & Coding: ICD 10 & 11 Fundamentals is a comprehensive training designed to prepare you for the fast-growing world of healthcare billing and coding. Whether you’re starting a new career or upskilling for a certification, this course breaks down complex medical coding systems into digestible, practical lessons.

You’ll begin by learning the foundations of medical terminology, anatomy, and healthcare documentation—core knowledge every coder must understand. Then, we’ll dive deep into ICD-10-CM: how it’s structured, how to assign accurate diagnosis codes, and why specificity matters for compliance and reimbursement. You’ll also get a forward-looking introduction to ICD-11, the global standard that’s reshaping coding in healthcare.

From there, the course covers CPT procedure coding, HCPCS Level II modifiers, and code linkage for medical necessity. You’ll understand how to create clean claims, reduce denials, and track reimbursements using modern EHR and billing software platforms.

You’ll also explore insurance plan types (Medicare, Medicaid, PPOs), learn how to navigate the Explanation of Benefits (EOB), and work with clearinghouses. Legal and ethical topics like HIPAA, audits, and fraud prevention are also covered.

By the end of this course, you’ll be confident in using ICD-10 and ICD-11 codes, understanding claim cycles, and preparing for CPC or CBCS certification paths.
