Participants
Unemployed, economically disadvantaged individuals who need to upgrade and improve their job search skills. The program is open to applicants of all ages.
The program will provide eight weeks (240 hours) of medical office skills instruction with hands-on practice in the fundamentals of maneuvering through an Electronic Health Record. The software taught includes the integration of practice management and electronic health records. Two weeks of computer instruction which includes a review of MS Office is followed by a six-week component in Medical Office Skills training. The classroom component is followed by a six-week internship placement with a partner Healthcare provider.
Sector-based, medical office components include: Medical Terminology; HIPPAA; and all the important aspects of medical office administration: Medical Insurance; Patient Registration; Scheduling and Referral; Procedure Posting; Insurance Billing; Posting Payments; Patient Billing; Medicaid/Medicare/ACA; and Follow-up and Dispute Resolution. Components in Customer Service in a Healthcare Environment and Communication Skills will also be included as these skills have been determined to be especially important to achieving success in these positions.
Training participants are taught using the materials, software and equipment used on the job. In the medical office classes, instructors teach our students using “real world” scenarios. They use current medical documents such as Medicare Claim forms, hospital superbills, EOMB remittance forms and blank HCFA claim forms. In the computer class, students prepare “real” letters and documents which would be used in a doctor’s office or health center.
