I got my CPC A a few months ago after many tries. I did preparation and education through CareerStep and even though I passed with honors, I had issues taking the exam. I had to do it four times before I finally passed and have been looking for jobs, internships, ANYTHING to put it to good use.
I cannot find anything.
Even externships weren’t willing to take me on. I can’t afford the 250 to remove my A.
I am very dissatisfied with AAPC and wasting my time and money on trying to become a coder.
AAPC charges you through the nose for the things you need to do well. Or even just to start your career. I even had to bite my tongue recently when dealing with one of AAPC’s rep about going to Healthcon and had to say MULTIPLE TIMES that I cannot afford it, nor can I afford anything else to get what I need to do well.
I have no experience in this field, and I really wanted to do well in it, but feel financially blocked by AAPC (EVEN WITH DISCOUNTS) to do what I need to do.

I want my money back. I want my time back. Now I am forced to find 3 part time jobs at **** wage just to make 2,000 dollars to make up the time and money so I can switch careers and eventually go into IT.
