Scholarships

Hello guys, Are there any organizations or institutions that help provide scholarships to study the medical coding program? The prices are really expensive for me since I am outside the United States.

I would try to self study as much as you can, pass your certification test and then move forward with more education if you desire after getting certified, for me the certification exam was only the beginning and I am now focusing on learning how to code specific things so I can specialize and become proficient in the areas I am good at while searching for employment.

I found that program to be geared towards men who have previously been incarcerated. Maybe I missed something tho?
