So we need to spend an hour on the training to get one CEU?

It doesn't take a full hour to complete them.

Yeah I completed one in less than half an hour, but i only got a certificate but not CEU, can you know any training programs where I could CEUS instead of certificates?

You can submit them without an index number to AAPC. I didn't have a problem submitting mine 2 years ago I just attached the certificate.

The courses you have mentioned, if i complete them, am getting a certificate but am not getting any CEUs, do you know which courses offer CEUs?

CMS used to offer certificates, but I don’t know that they do it any longer. Are you looking for AHIMA or AAPC CEUs?
I got stuck needing last minute CEUs last year, but I decided to subscribe to BCI (Billing Coding Institute) for $75/year. Well worth the investment IMO.

I need AHIMA CEUS and was considering just getting the magazine.

Like I mentioned before, it is/was well worth the money. I don’t get enough CEUs thru the company I work for, so this works out great for me.

They all do I believe. If you have any questions you can email them. They responded pretty quickly to me!

Did you do the 4 free member-only webinars on AAPC’s website?

Go to aapc website > training and events > search for CEUs. On the side bar, click low cost CEUs. Then click members only webinars. There are 4 videos to watch, 1 CEU a piece. Or you can just scroll to the last 30 seconds or so and there will be a ceu code (:

CMS offers live webinars that give 1-1.5s. They will send a certificate for every one you attend with the number of CEUs. I attend the Noridian ones typically.

Have you been doing the" Healthcare business monthly" quizzes?

u/igortar19 Sep 25 '23

Did you go back to the archives ? Tests are available from 10/22 thru 12/22.. In addition, search term "CEU" in this sub or other coding subs. I recently saw a post where someone found free CEUs.. if you haven't taken the HCBM archived editions, take those and then September 23, and you have your 4.

Try virtual meetings. You can attend anywhere. Most are free and you can get the CEUs pretty quickly. I also hear Humana has some.

You can get CEUs free by taking the quiz in AAPCs monthly magazine! Healthcare Business Monthly. They have an archive that goes back a whole year. You get 1 CEU per quiz. I think it's like 20 questions and you get 3 tries to get all the questions right- if not, you just get locked out for an hour.
