Build Your Future With Medical Billing and Coding
Behind every successful medical office is a team of skilled professionals who manage billing, insurance claims, and patient records. Medical Billing and Coding specialists are vital to the healthcare system, ensuring accuracy, efficiency, and compliance. At SACC Career Center, we offer a Medical Billing and Coding program at both the San Antonio and DeSoto campuses that equips students with the knowledge and tools needed to succeed in this growing field.
The program is 340 clock hours and covers a wide range of essential topics. Students learn insurance billing, diagnostic and procedural coding (ICD-10 and CPT), HIPAA compliance, healthcare reimbursement systems, and electronic health records. This program prepares you not only for entry-level positions but also for national certification exams, which can increase job opportunities and earning potential.
What makes our Medical Billing and Coding program unique is the hybrid learning format. Students at both campuses can complete a portion of their coursework online, gaining flexibility to balance personal or professional responsibilities. In-person sessions provide opportunities to practice using coding manuals, billing software, and case studies that reflect real-world scenarios. This approach ensures that graduates are not just book-smart but job-ready.
