Graduates of the Medical Billing certificate will be prepared to sit for the AAPC Certified Professional Biller (CPB™) exam, which is highly valued and often preferred by employers for medical records specialists.

The program is completely stackable and part of the College’s renowned Health Information Management program, which includes its Certificate of Proficiency in Medical Coding, AS in Health Information Management and BS in Health Information Administration.
