NAU’s Healthcare Coding program is an excellent career choice if you see yourself working in the in-demand health care field but not directly with patients. Coding professionals are key players in the healthcare workplace, accurately converting disease, injury and procedure descriptions documented in patient records into numeric or alphanumeric codes using coding manuals and encoder software. These codes assist in securing reimbursement for physicians, hospitals and other healthcare providers. Healthcare organizations also use coded data for quality management, planning, marketing, and other administrative and research activities. NAU is currently pursuing program accreditation through the American Health Information Management Association (AHIMA) to prepare program graduates for the certification examination to become Certified Coding Associates (CCA).
