Mr. Nguyen, thank you so much for taking time to do these videos. I watched them in preparation for my CCS exam and I passed on October 18th. You're doing a great thing for those who need to prepare. Thank you, thank you, thank you!
Hi Anna. Wow congratulation on passing the CCS exam which is the mastery level proficiency in medical coding. I am very happy for you. The future now belongs to you. I wish you all the best in climbing the ladder of success.
Good morning Diana. Congratulations on passing the CPC exam and thank you so much for sharing this good news with me. Good luck for more excellent achievement in the future. Very well done!
Mr. Hoang, I wanted to thank you so very much for your help. I took my CPC yesterday and passed! I attribute much of this to your strategies. Thank you so much! You do so much of a service to those of us prepping for this exam!
Hi Melanie. Congratulations on passing the CPC exam yesterday and sharing this good news with me. You've made this day remarkable with your great achievement. Very well done. I wish you all the best.
Hello Melanie and Congratulations on your Certification. I'm from Puerto Rico 🇵🇷 and I'm about to take the test. I just want to ask you, did you take it online? How is the process and if the same day they give you the result of the exam? Thank you for your answer and Much Success! 🙌🏽🥳
@@mariacabrera4062 I'm really glad you asked. I took it online. The test itself wasn't bad. I will say that the proctoring process was a bit nerve racking. It's not like the instructional video they send you. There definitely can be a language barrier. The proctors themselves were extremely professional and capable. Just keep in mind that you have to go through a Zoom or Goto meeting app, so be prepared when that pops up. It was different for each part of the test. It kind of threw me off. Definitely do a practice run with your camera while you sit at your desk. I'm not a super computer whiz person so what made me nervous might not make a more computer savvy person nervous. There weren't instructions at the beginning about how to mark a question or skip it for later. I might have missed that in another message prior to the test. So I just took each question as it came and went straight through. I have taken certification exams through my current profession and find that's better anyway. I had plenty of time left over. The first half was 74 questions and it was actually harder than the second half. I finished the second half with over an hour to spare. Don't be thrown by the longer op reports. Just do what Mr. Nguyen says and go to the bottom and look at what they are asking for. Look at every code, don't assume the first one you think is right is right. Consult your guidelines when you need to. Just breathe! Oh and allow yourself an hour buffer between part 1 and part 2. I knew I wouldn't likely need the entire time so I thought I had enough time between part 1 and part 2, but the proctor process took a long time so I started late, which doesn't affect your test time but pushed me later for starting the second part. Make sure you allow pop-up blockers. We disabled mine through the ad blocker app but then it still didn't work, so be sure you go under Settings to disable them. Sorry so long!
Hi Sara. Congratulations on passing the CPC exam and sharing this good news with me. You did well for your exam and that proves you have the ability and talent to become who you want to be. Wishing you all the best and thank you so much for your support.
I followed your exam tipsfrom the very beginning and it really helped me a lot in my review. I already took my exam and passed. Thank you so much Mr. Hoang 🙏🏻.
Hi Kimberly. Congratulations on passing the exam and thank you so much for sharing this good news with me. Very well done with persistence and hard work. I wish you all the best.
Thank you for this! When you explain the reason to use the modifiers in your own words, with examples, it helps me to understand better than just reading the definition in the book.
Dear Hoang, first, thank you so much for all of your videos - I just found out that I passed the CPC exam with a 92%. I took a very good online course which at the end recommended a list of your videos for exam prep, which I watched, and continued to watch so many more. Your kindness and positivity is addicting and make the material easy to understand. You are a gift and I really appreciate what you do here!
Hi KP. Congratulations on passing the CPC exam and thanks so much for sharing this good news with me. I am very impressed with your passing score 92%. You did well for your exam and that proves you have the ability and talent to become who want to be. I wish you all the best!
I recently started coding classes but the institute is just running through the material and not explaining much. I was so confused. Turned to you tube and found you. Such a great impact your videos have. Thankyou so much. More than the institute I'm learning from your videos and keep rewatching them to learn more.
I understand and this is one of the main reasons why I created this channel to help those people like you who are new to coding and also struggle understanding the learning materials. Good luck with your study and thanks so much for your support.
Thank you for your assistance Mr. Nguyen, very invaluable!! The last question example, for Modifier 22 you have (unusual) procedural services, although it is written as a part of the detail for when to use modifier 22, the actual title definition say Modifier 22 - (Increased) procedural services, like how title definition for modifier 23 says, Modifier 23 - Unusual Anesthesia.
I have to keep on commenting. I finished my course and now studying for the cpc and cpb exam. The course I took is great but with These style of teaching I’m able to understand everything. I’m so lucky I decided to have found you. We need more teachers like you. After I pass both exams I will continue training with you. I will be taking your free courses on your website. I want to be great at my future job like yourself. 🥰🥰🥰
I believe wholeheartedly that you will pass both exams and will be a great coder. When you believe in yourself, study hard and follow your heart then nothing impossible. You have nothing to lose if you follow me :) and you will be a great coder. Good luck with your study and thanks so much for your continued support!
Thank you so much for your help. I watched you videos on exam prep for the CPC exam and applied your strategies. I took my test on November 6 and are pleased to say I passed my exam. I have told everyone I know that is preparing to take the exam to watch your videos. Thanks again.
Hi Angela. Congratulations on passing the CPC exam and thank you so much for sharing this good news with me and also for your referral. Your hard work has paid off. Wishing you all the best!
I decided last night that I was going to study and take the CPC exam this year after years in the medical billing/insurance field. I’m glad I found your videos and look forward to using your method to help me pass my exam. Thanks for all of your hard work!
Hi Robert. It's a good decision that you made last night. It's about time for you to advance your career profession and I believe you can do it since you are already in the field. Good luck with your study.
I love your video. I just graduated after taking online courses and your video’s are giving me the confidence I need to schedule my CPC exam. Thank you so much and I also signed up for your free online classes. ❤️
Hi Raaj. Wow congratulations on passing the CPC exam and sharing this good news with me. I am glad that you have used my strategy for the exam and it actually helped. I wish you all the best!
Hi Lili. Wow congratulations on passing two exams CDIP and CRC and sharing this good news with me. I believe you are climbing the ladder of successes now so I wish you good luck for more excellent achievement in the future. Very well done!
Thank you Mr. Hoang for all you do, and the time you take to make this videos, i have learned so much from your videos and things make sense when you explain and go into details. Thank you
Hi Maria. I am glad that you have learned so much from my videos and that will make learning more interesting and enjoyable. Thank you so much for your comment and support.
Mr. Nguyen, would you consider making a video going more in depth into the differences between modifiers 51 and 59 and provide some scenarios in which they would or would not be used?
Thank you so much for creating these tutorial videos. I really like how you repeat your explanations so that I do not have to rewind. So far I have watched this video, the E/M services videos. I also really like the practice questions along with explanations. I plan to watch many more of your videos!
Hi Shiva. Wow congratulations on passing the CPC exam. You did it. Thank you for sharing this good news with me. Your hard work has paid off. I know you studied very hard for this exam so you deserve it. I wish you all the best for your future career.
Congratulations on passing the coding exam and sharing this good news with me. Everything is possible when you believe in yourself. Wishing you all the best!
Hello Sir , I just passed my cpc exam with 80% it happens only by your tips and tricks thank you so much . How long it would take to get my certificate?
Hi Athiii. Congratulations on passing the CPC exam and sharing this good news with me. You should call AAPC and find out when you expect to receive your certificate. Very well done.
When placing the modifiers between the procedure code along with the add on code, do you only put the modifier on the procedure code and never on the add on code?
Modifier 50 is very straight forward. This only applies to identical anatomical sites or paired organs. For example using mod 50 when the same procedures are performed on both kidneys, lungs, ovaries, nostrils (nose); ears, eyes etc unless the CPT code description already indicates it includes both unilateral and bilateral. I hope it helps.
hello Mr Hoang i have tried to visit your own website and successfully signed up. But I can't still log-in because I was not given any username or sort of instructions on how to get that. Thanj you
Hi Maricar. As long as I already signed up with our full name and email address, then I will add you to the course and send you your login ID tomorrow. Thank you.
Certain procedures/services are considered integral to the moderate conscious sedation procedure and should NOT be reported separately. The summary of CPT codes that include moderate conscious sedation (Appendix G) has been removed from the CPT code set.
Hello Hoang, I am 40, from india, want to settle in US, Canada etc.. I have MSc in life Sciences and having experience in clinical documentation domain, my query is Can I get job as a fresher after getting CPC at this age?!. Thank you in advance.
Hi Abu. Yes you can find a coding job at your age absolutely. With your background in life sciences and clinical documentation, you will be a great asset to any coding department; they will hire you right away so let's pass the CPC exam first. I wish you all the best.

All CPT add on codes are exempt from using modifier 51, but not all modifiers.
