CCS Certification Training – Lelord Medical Coding

Certified Coding Specialist (CCS) certification is one of the most respected credentials in medical coding. It focuses primarily on inpatient hospital coding, DRG assignment, and complex medical records. Lelord Medical Coding offers one of the most comprehensive CCS training programs designed for both beginners and experienced coders.

What is CCS Certification?

CCS stands for Certified Coding Specialist, issued by AHIMA. This certification proves your expertise in ICD-10-CM, ICD-10-PCS, and inpatient reimbursement systems. CCS coders mostly work in hospitals and large healthcare organizations where advanced clinical knowledge is essential.

Why CCS Certification Matters

Inpatient coding is more complex than outpatient coding. Documentation is longer
and includes surgery reports, pathology reports, anesthesia notes, and discharge
summaries. Hospitals prefer certified coders, which is why CCS opens doors to high
paying coding and auditing roles.

Eligibility for CCS Certification
  • Basic ICD-10 coding knowledge
  • CPC or other coding certifications
  • A background in life sciences or healthcare
  • Prior medical coding training
