Hi all,
To whom already certified as CPCO, or planning to take the CPCO, how do you plan or already passed the certification? What kind of courses are you taking? Did you pay for the $1500 ($1200 on sale until 3/31/2016) for the course through AAPC? If so, how much did that help you with the exam?
I am CPC for less than two years, I obtained my CPC certificate after completed 13 months program through a Technical college. I am working at a physician owned group, doing outpatient coding, inpatient, GI, and other specialties, we coders are having a hard time to communicate and work with those providers since none of us is auditor, even though some of them are very experienced, but they are still afraid to go out there and speak with providers. So I am thinking to try the CPCO, not sure by paying the amount of money will be able to pass the exam if I study hard.
Please offer any pointers regarding to the CPCO certification, your input is valued and appreciated!
