Medical Coding Course

The Virtual Learning Center (VLC) offers expertly prepared online medical coding courses that will train you to become a professional medical coder in your own time and on your own terms.

Our online medical coding course is taught using the Mentoring Interactive Modular Education (M.I.M.E.) method of instruction, which provides instructors for guidance, online interaction among students, and presentation of information in easy-to-follow modules. M.I.M.E. was especially developed at the VLC to make distance education easier.

Medical coding was developed as a universal language for the medical profession to ensure proper financial reimbursement from insurance companies and government agencies. Numerical codes provide the clarity that insurance firms need to keep paperwork and payments flowing. Learning this numeric language puts a new world of employment possibilities at your fingertips. Working from your home or in a healthcare facility, you would assign the codes you learn to medical diagnoses and procedures.
