TESTIMONIALS from NPs & Certified Billers
I recently completed a billing and coding class instructed by Naomi, and I couldn't be more pleased with the experience. Naomi's depth of knowledge and passion for the subject matter truly gleamed through her teaching style.
Her ability to explain complex concepts in a clear and concise manner made me feel more confident when I code now.
....I highly recommend Naomi's class to anyone looking to learn how to do their own billing and coding as providers.
Lisenie Mayard
The class was loaded with valuable information on billing and coding; info that I use now in my practice. I learned when to bill complexity and by time; how to determine level of complexity; add on codes that I can use to capture services rendered; and more.
The content was easy to follow, and the instructor was methodical and patient.
Thank you Naomi
