Azimuth, a leading company in digital content creation, healthcare BPO and online education, has launched its new online course for medical coding certification in partnership with Medesun, a reputed training and certifying institute in medical billing and coding in the USA and India. It is a unique home-based opportunity to get trained and certified in medical coding by US-approved training experts.
In the US, every interaction that a doctor has with a patient is documented. The process of medical coding involves the assignment of specific numeric codes for each disease condition and procedure that is performed. Prior specific training is required to obtain a job in the coding field.
“Because India is a primary destination for this type of business process, the increased demand for skilled ICD-10 coders in the US will bring about an equivalent demand in India. This will create a very attractive opportunity for talented and well-trained professionals to have a lucrative career, either home-based or within a healthcare BPO company such as Azimuth.” says Terry Leger, CEO and CMD of Azimuth.
“The Azimuth Medical Transcription course is already a great success in India, and we expect the new Azimuth Medical Coding Certification course to be equally attractive and successful for job seekers wishing to train and have a rewarding career from the comfort of their homes,” adds Anand, VP of Azimuth.

Dr. M. Santosh Kumar Guptha, founder and chief trainer of Medesun, says, “All Medesun trainers in India are coders who are certified by AHIMA (American Health Information Management Association). These AHIMA-approved trainers are highly qualified to impart ICD-10 coding training. We are excited to partner with Azimuth, who is a leader in e-learning and online training. Through this remarkable partnership, we can effectively cater to the growing training needs of the medical billing and coding industry”.
