Ms. Laquita

Hello Everyone,

I'm doing a Q/A video about my 1st Medical Coding job. Please leave your questions below and I will answer them in the upcoming video. I haven't appeared on camera in a while. I'm looking forward to sitting down and connecting with you all again.

See you soon!

What tips can you give to help you pass the exam? What could you put on your resume to make you stand out and land a position? What would be the best position to apply for as a beginner?

Hey Laquita! Years ago you were my first video I watched on medical coding. Now I’m an MA and want to get into coding. I’m going the AAPC route but I want to know how training went with your first position. How long did you train for and how hands on were they? Did you feel ready? I’ve done a lot of research but I have yet to hear ppl talk about how training works. I have heard that no matter what everyone gets trained with the job. Thank you!

Greetings, I recently found your channel and I'm truly grateful. I've been in the medical field for 20yrs, MA by trade B.S. degree and a few medical certifications. I'm extremely interested in medical coding. I've been looking into preppy which has an online certification for the AAPC and accredited through Auburn University, they also provide an externship opportunity as well. Have you heard of them and what's your thoughts about online education for medical coding? Thank you 🙏
