Medical Billing and Coding is one of the newer healthcare professions gaining in popularity. As a medical billing and coding professional you are the link between healthcare providers, patients and the insurance companies. It is a great profession for someone interested in healthcare who does not want direct patient care responsibilities. In addition, according to the Bureau of Labor Statistics, medical billing and coding jobs are projected to increase at a faster-than-average rate of eight percent through 2028.

This job requires attention to detail and the ability to work directly with insurance companies. You will analyze health records, and complete insurance forms by assigning codes that determine medical billing and insurance payment. This job is not just sitting behind a computer screen inputting data.
