New eLearning modules offer training in proper coding, documentation

BCBSM and BCN are pleased to offer web-based eLearning modules that give professional billers and coders in-depth training about proper claim coding and documentation.

The two new interactive eLearning training modules are enriched with multimedia elements, examples and case studies. When you finish each of the modules, your understanding of the material will be assessed. You’ll receive a Certificate of Completion for the training if you answer 90 percent of the questions correctly. Here’s how to access the training:

• Click on BCBSM Provider Publications and Resources.
• Click on Newsletters and Resources.
• The Documentation and Coding Accuracy eLearning modules can be found under What’s New and Provider Training.

The training modules are also available within BCN Provider Publications and Resources on the Learning Opportunities page.

These new training modules are a great addition to the documentation and coding webinars and presentations offered by the Blues in 2013. If you missed last year’s webinars, you can still view the coding initiative presentation online. Follow the above instructions to get to the BCBSM Provider Training page, and then scroll down to eLearning (web-based training) resources. The same training is also available on the BCN Learning Opportunities page.

Contact your BCBSM and BCN provider consultant to share your thoughts on the new training or you may email us at ProviderTraining@bcbsm.com.
