Hello, my name is Malisa. I have extensive experience auditing and providing education to providers of multiple specialties and coders of all skill levels. I was previously an online instructor for an AAPC CPC approved program where I taught Medical Terminology & Anatomy along with ICD-10CM Medical Coding. I also specialize in E/M medical coding training. I have been instrumental in assisting many students who had previously failed the AAPC CPC exam multiple times to build confidence and successfully pass their exam. My goal with my students is to patiently train them on the ICD-10CM coding guidelines and to show them how to properly navigate through the book in order to select and properly sequence the appropriate diagnosis codes. I also have a strong background in E/M coding. I tailor my approach on an individual basis in order help my student reach their full potential and build confidence in their ability to be successful. I know what it is like to not receive the proper education and the challenge of overcoming the intimidation of taking the AAPC CPC coding certification. I am a naturally warm and patient instructor who want to see those who "think" they can't or doubt they can succeed; to acquire the knowledge in a manner best for them individually to believe they can become a Certified Professional Coder.
If you are looking to have a successful career in medical coding, please reach out to me for a consultation and/or to schedule lessons.

extremely knowledgeable and excellent at breaking down the basics

Wow! Malisa has been incredibly helpful. I decided to seek tutoring before taking my CPC exam. I received a certificate for medical billing and coding from a community college, but I knew I was still not fully prepared for my exam. Online school with out the one on one can be hard and I knew I was still a little lost. In only two sessions with Malisa I have learned SO much that I had not not learned in school. I highly recommend Malisa for preparing for your exam, or if you are feeling lost. She is extremely knowledgeable and excellent at breaking things down. 10/10!!

Alexa, it is a pleasure to work with you. Thank you for the kind words. I truly love helping people build confidence with medical coding and take the intimidation out of it because years ago I felt if others are not passing the exam multiple times, will I? Thankfully, I did the first time and love sharing what helped me to obtain my AAPC CPC certification. You're extremely knowledgeable on your own. I'm here just to add the toppings:)

A great, knowledgeable teacher!

Malisa went over OB coding guidelines and conventions with me. They never made complete sense to me before, but after today I feel so much more confident. She gives great tips on how to use the ICD10 coding book as well. Thank you!

Great First Lesson!

Malisa really took her time in making sure I understood my ICD 10 Guidelines because I expressed that I could definitely use help in that area. Her information was clear and I appreciated the time she took to make sure I was understanding everything she was going over. I can’t wait for my 2nd lesson with her! I can already tell this is exactly what I needed!

Knowledgeable and patient

Melissa is amazing. I just took her class today and she was able to explain E/M coding concepts very well. Within one hour of her class she gave me so much information that made me I understand this subject. I am looking forward to having another class with her again soon.
