How to choose a
   medical coding
 certification study
guide or prep course
         Written by Jim H May
 (http://howtostudyforcpcexam.com/)
If you're looking to get a medical coding certification study guide, chances are you'll have come
across many different choices online and offline. The variety in terms of price, method, trainers,
and programs can lead you to experiencing information overload. The good thing about variety
means that you'll find the perfect study guide for you. You don't want to waste precious study
time and unnecessary cost so you'll have to narrow down the search by knowing what exactly
what fits your need.



You can find many free and paid medical coding certification study guides aimed at helping you
to pass the CPC exam so it is important to choose wisely. How much you absorb or benefit is
determined by the presentation and style of delivery of those study guides. So here are a list of
things you might want to consider:



1. Purpose



First of all, you'll want to check and confirm that the prep course or study guide is there to help
you pass the CPC exam and get certified as a medical coder. This is important because it
influences the presentation of content and the style in which it is delivered. You'll want
guidance and tips not only to help you answer questions, but also to anticipate just what may
come up. Ideally it should be laser-targeted to help you pass the CPC exam, not drown you with
details.



2. Exam tips



After you've determined that the purpose of the medical coding certification study guide or
prep course is to help you pass the certification exam, then you can check out the content. The
subject of study needs to be presented to you in a way that makes it clear how important it is to
the exam. Look for exam tips or nuggets of information that are sprinkled throughout so that
when you study, you can prioritize and dedicate more time on the questions that are likely to
appear. It's a bonus if the content or the trainer can tell you and point out the problems areas
that are likely to trip you up during the exam.
3. Presentation style



Think about how do you study best? What is your learning style? Determine if you're a visual,
auditory, or tactile learner. These three different types of learners absorb information
differently. You might have noticed that you take in information more efficiently either through
reading, listening, or making very visual notes. Armed with this information, you can then
choose a study guide or prep course that fits your style. You will want to make sure the
presentation is interesting to you. When you are engaged in the learning process, you'll simply
absorb and retain more. Look for study guides that 'speaks to you', whether it is a video, audio,
or text-based study guide. It helps to have an experienced teacher or trainer to review with you
the things you're studying.



3. Leverage on a teaching expert



Depending on your choice, you can also ask if you have access to an expert, teacher, or trainer
who can guide you and answer your questions? Support is really important whether from a
mentor or a fellow student. Especially for online courses or study guides, make sure it comes
with support from a qualified professional. Asking questions and having it answered especially
about the experiences of taking the certification exam ensures your mindset going into the
exam is well prepared.



4. Can you try it first



Some medical coding courses can be very expensive, depending on the level of support you get.
Look for offers of trial or guarantee. It would be nice if you can have access to see if it suits your
study style and needs. Otherwise look for places where you can connect with people who have
used it to get their opinions.
Bottom-line is, you can spend time looking for the perfect medical coding study guide, or just
      choose the ONLY CPC exam preparation video program available on the Internet.
