Trained, reliable medical records technicians and specialists are essential of the health care industry is to handle ever-increasing caseloads and regulatory reporting requirements. Billing technicians record every transaction, including patient examinations, diagnoses, treatments, medications, and procedures.

Coders are tasked with tracking claims to ensure that physicians, hospitals, and clinics receive prompt and correct reimbursement from insurance companies or patients.

Employment of medical-billing professionals is predicted to grow a whopping 18 percent over the next decade, according to the U.S. Labor Department. Medical-billing schools offer training programs that prepare people to take on this demanding role. Students may study medical terminology and computer science, including courses in the coding procedures involving chemistry, mathematics, biology, patient-relations, and medical procedures. Medical-billing schools may also combine a liberal arts component, allowing students to complete full associates' degrees while attending the program. The American Academy of Professional Coders offers three certification examinations for medical-billing professionals.

Following graduation from an accredited medical-billing school, coders can enter the profession and begin accumulating hours toward certification. To be eligible, medical coders must have a minimum of having completed two-years' class work at a medical-billing school. Practicing medical-billing clerks may also advance to supervisory or management roles in larger facilities that hire a large number of coders, including hospitals, large clinics, and laboratories. Other coding jobs will be available through home care agencies, outpatient clinics, and long-term assisting living facilities.
