The Medical Practice Coding Pro is pre-approved by the Board of Medical Specialty Coding (BMSC) for:
- Up to 6 CEUs towards the maintenance of the Advanced Coding Specialist credential.
- Up to 5 CEUs towards the maintenance of the Specialty Coding Professional credential.
Here's what you need to do in order to earn your BMSC CEUs:
- Review an article you've read in a BMSC-approved publication, and in writing, state what you've learned and how it will change the way you code and bill claims for your practice. Provide CPT, HCPCS and ICD-9 codes as appropriate. Include the name of publication, article title, and date of publication on your submission.
- Review a scenario (for example, found in one of the Medical Practice Coding Pro) and describe, in writing, what you've learned from the coding scenario and how you can apply what you've learned to your practice. Provide codes as appropriate. Include the name of the publication, date of publication, page numbers of scenarios you are referencing on your submission.
BMSC awards 1 CEU per review or scenario.
You will need to submit your scenarios with your renewal application and applicable fees directly to BMSC. Please visit the Renewal Page on the BMSC site to download your renewal application.
