Having a hard time managing your study time
Wondering if you will finish in the allotted 5 and a half hours you are basically freaking out with the thought of failing your next attempt at your CPC exam!

My job depended on it. Believe me, I feel your pain! Maybe this is your first time taking the CPC exam. Maybe you have failed before and this is your second or third time trying to get certified. Either way, you are desperate for any method that you could use to improve your chances of passing the exam. Well, I have good news
YouAve come to the right place! My name is Laureen Jandroep (CPC) and IAve been teaching and coaching medical coders to prepare to be certified coders for the American Academy of Professional Coders (AAPC) or American Health Information Management Association (AHIMA) physician based board exams since 1999. I have taken and passed many of the board exams including: CPC, CPC-H, CCS-P, CCS, RCC and OTR.
I started my career in medical coding when I ran my own successful rehab practice in New Jersey that at its zenith served over 17 long term care facilities with 26 therapists, aides and support staff. My company was approved by Medicare and billed over $1.6 Million annually with less than a .06% rejection rate unheard of in the rehab industry. The reason for this success was making sure my company billed based on source documentation and provided ongoing training to my therapists regarding proper coding. So believe me- I know about coding!
I have a unique way of teaching myself new concepts and I share that with my students. So they get it. As fast as possible. Because medical coding demands that we stay current on changes in medical coding billing. So let me tell you
There is a solution to CPC exam overwhelm.
You see, it doesnt have to be that hard. You dont need to stress. After all, the exam is open book rightb You just need to get organized, focus on whats important to pass the test and dont sweat the small stuff!

The Birth of Medical Coding Blitz Videos
I have been teaching medical coding in a full time or part time capacity since 1999. Back in the day I took all the certification exams so that my students could see that I felt their pain and knew what they were going to be going through. This helped me to understand the format of the exams and prepare my students for what was going to be covered in the exam.
But my students wanted more. A few years ago while I was teaching a longer CPC traing class, my students pleaded Help us get ready for next weeks exam! So we reviewed the whole CPC training program in two days. And thats how the Blitz Videos were born.
For over 11 years now I have been teaching this review program- with many students successfully passing their CPC exam after viewing my videos.
Will These Videos Help Me Pass the CPC Examb This program works. Its worked for hundreds of people. But dont take my work for it. Heres just some of the testimonials I have received from some of the happy students who have purchased my CPC Exam preparation Videos over the last few years: Blitz Video Review Mary I failed two times then bought your videos
At age 49, I started to go back to school in a MBC program, Graduated at age 50 with high honors, and valedictorian. I attended an alumni meeting a year later, and the MBC Program Director hired me to teach the MBC Externship Program. I had to become CPC certified within months to keep employment there. I failed the first time, couldnt finish in the 5-1/2 hours allotted then.
Failed the second time by the skin of my teeth- 69. And then restudied, restudied and bought your Videos, which I viewed a few times.
Going through the CPT book and highlighting guidelines and all those tips made the exam go smoother. I took the exam, passed and incredibly finished in 4-1/2 hours. Thats a record for me. Yes, it cost me again to pay for the exam but I have no regrets whatsoever. Your videos helped me tremendously the 3rd time around and I just wanted to say thanks to you. 3 Times was a charm for me. NEVER GIVE UP. Keep up the great work. You are awesome, you teach from your heart and your tips are EXCELLENT.
