Importance of Medical Coding Practicum

Most medical coding training programs that I am aware of – and I have done my research - focus almost entirely on theoretic training, which - while important – is far removed from the realities of a clinical coding setting. The very best medical coding training option will include a comprehensive practicum – something that will allow you to put into practice the theory and medical coding rules that you learn. The best medical coding training program will include something very substantive that approximates the real world of medical coding. I cannot stress too much the importance of an intensive practicum in the medical coding training program you select. I can tell you that when you apply for your first job, this practical experience is going to set you apart from your competitors. More importantly, it will translate into a high comfort level on your first day on the job as a medical coder.

Again, one of the most important components of a quality medical coding training program will be a comprehensive “hands-on” practicum. Nothing will prepare you more for the real world of medical coding than a solid medical coding practicum.
