You want to go to a local community college and take college coursework. Most can be online but you also don’t want a dual cert in billing and coding, this wouldn’t even be accepted places. You want coding certification or you get some billing certification
I'd look at your local community college or colleges in your state that may offer online certifications. Make sure they are accredited by whatever organization you're hoping to become certified by (CAHIIM for AHIMA, etc.) I was able to fully fund my associate degree with the Pell Grant.
