Does medicine interest you, but you prefer to work in an office setting? DBU’s Medical Billing and Coding program is for you! Students can complete this program in just three academic quarters. You’ll learn the codes used by the healthcare industry for reimbursement. Graduates are ready for careers in hospitals, clinics, doctors’ offices, nursing homes, and home health agencies. Some Medical Billing and Coding professionals even work from home. You’ll play an important role in today’s medical environment by assembling patients’ health information, ensuring that all forms are properly completed, assigning a code to each diagnosis and procedure, and determining the amount of reimbursement to be received from the insurance company.
