The Certified Inpatient Coder (CIC) certification is designed for individuals who specialize in coding for inpatient hospital settings. This certification focuses on the accurate application of ICD-10-CM and ICD-10-PCS codes for diagnoses and procedures in the inpatient environment. It ensures coders are well-versed in the complexities of hospital billing and reimbursement systems.

The CIC course is ideal for coders who want to specialize in inpatient hospital coding and work with diagnosis-related groups (DRGs) and inpatient procedures.
You will learn to code inpatient procedures using ICD-10-CM and ICD-10-PCS, as well as hospital billing processes, compliance, and reimbursement systems.
The CIC course typically takes 4-6 months, depending on the learning pace and format.
