HIGH DEMAND FOR MEDICAL CODERS

Louisville Medical Coding

Medical coding is a high demand profession that is expected to increase by 21% by 2020, according to The U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS).  The BLS forsees this industry as having a faster growth rate on average than all other occupations.  Medical Coding is a great career choice for someone who wants to work behind the scenes on the business side of healthcare, instead of hands-on with patient care.

Both of our medical coding programs prepare students for their AAPC certification. You can find helpful information about the average salaries of AAPC certified medical coders by clicking here to learn more.

With the increasing population of the United States, as well as the age of the Baby Boomers assures that the medical industry will continue to grow, thus added demand for properly trained medical coding professionals.
