I enrolled in Donna's class in August 2009. I took the National Exam in November and passed it. I could not have done this without Donna's help. I was very nervous and reluctant about taking this exam because I hate failure. Donna's knowledge and encouragement made the difference in me passing this exam the first time. Others told me I could take a prep course and then take the exam. I thank God I did not listen to them. The National Exam is tough but if you follow Donna's lead and put in a lot of hard work you can pass this exam. Donna has a wonderful, fun personality and she really cares about her students.
Kathey Flagg, BS, CPC
After being an RN for may years I thought my test taking days were over, but to my surprise I found myself sitting for the CPC exam. My only coding experience had been in auditing charts for E/M services and my current job position did not require coding certification. But through the encouragement of a friend I began to realize that certification would validate my coding knowledge and possibly create new opportunities for me in the future. I do not believe the CPC exam is an easy exam to pass, but I do know that I could not have passed it without first attending the course provided by Codes Unlimited Healthcare Academy. The course gives you the information you need in all areas of coding and Donna Martin is an excellent teacher and motivator. I would recommend to anyone that if you are going to consider taking the CPC exam the course at CUHA is a must.
Linda Murrley, RN, CPC
I began Codes Unlimited Healthcare Academy with very little acknowledge of medical coding, but after completing this course I left with great knowledge and confidence in this field of healthcare. Ms. Donna prepared me for both the national exam and the real life situations within the medical coding field. Not only is Ms. Donna a great instructor, but she also goes above and beyond after the class to assist you in any way possible in finding a job. I completed this course while being a single mother and also in the senior semester of my graduating year of college, so it can be done. I highly recommend this course to anyone who has a desire to move forward in the medical coding field.

I took Donna Martin’s coding course after meeting one of her former CPC-A graduates. This was my motivation to receive my certification after being in the medical coding field since 1991. Ms. Martin’s class was well structured and planned out. I could tell the first day of class Ms. Martin was motivated and dedicated to helping each student achieve the goal of being a certified coder. Ms. Martin taught me how to code areas I had never done before. With this knowledge and confidence I set for my first CPC exam. I became certified around 3 months after meeting this wonderful instructor! I highly recommend Codes Unlimited to anyone that has ever felt they wanted to take their coding to the next level, certification! I owe my success in achieving this long time goal of being a CPC to Donna Martin and her program.

I received my CPC certification April 2004 after taking Donnas’ class and passed the first time. Donna made everything easy to understand and was always available for questions and additional clarification. Since then I have achieved an additional certification in 2008 with Donnas’ help and guidance. Donna is a wonderful teacher and I am very happy I took her class and met this extraordinary woman. Thanks Donna for all of your encouraging words!!
Rose Perkins CPC, CPC-H
After going to Coding school for one year in 2002, and taking the exam National Exam twice without passing both times; I went to PMCC for 12 weeks where I met a phenomenal woman by the name of Donna Martin. She taught me the correct methods of coding and being able to pass the National Coding Exam. I passed this 5 ½ hour exam first time around in February 2007. Since then, I have received my CPC-H in 2008 due to addition training from Donna Martin. Donna is an excellent teacher and if you want to pass the exam she is the best teacher to have.

Taking the course offered at CUHA by Donna Martin was the factor that gave me confidence to pass the CPC exam. Donna is a wonderful teacher, who brings her wealth of experience to the classroom. I owe my success in achieving CPC status to this course.

I am a recent graduate of Codes Unlimited and passed the CPC in 2008. I enjoyed the class very much; the instructor Donna Martin is well experienced and knowledgeable in coding and the Medicare guidelines. In order to be successful you have to take notes, review, review, review. Ms. Martin gives you all of the tools needed to be successful in taking the CPC exam. But there is a part you as the student must do. Spend time learning your CPT book and ICD-9 book it will be the tools needed to be successful in taking the CPC and your future as a certified coder. I highly recommend taking Codes Unlimited course to be successful in taking the certification.

Owning my own billing company for the past 25+ years I decided that it was finally time to get my CPC certification. I initially tried the AAPC's at home course, on your own product and did not find the time to complete it. After searching the AAPC’s web site and local coding companies I came across Codes Unlimited and Donna Martin. What a joy it was to attend her classes. I am not a school type person and I can honestly say I looked forward to my Saturday morning class with her.
After 12 weeks of study I took my national exam and passed. Ms. Martins’ class was very well structured and every week we continued to learn more and more about the ins and outs of correct coding. I also had one of my head supervisors take the course and she passed her nationals on the first try as well. The class was hard but fun and this is what made it so rewarding. I would highly recommend Codes Unlimited to anyone looking to get CPC certified.

When I decided to pursue my coding certificate I started asking questions. Where should I go? What should I do? I was given Donna's name and contact information and was told that if I was serious about pursing my CPC her class would be step number one. When I went to buy my CPT and ICD-9 books for the class the man at the bookstore asked if I was taking Donna's class. He knew about Donna and told me that people come from all over the state to take her class. He was right. There were at least two people in my class who drove over an hour, from Mississippi, to attend class every Saturday. Saturday classes are very convenient for those of us who work Monday-Friday and Donna's class is fun! She's 100% there to help you do your best to succeed and get that certificate. And I did! Thanks Ms.Donna!

Codes Unlimited Healthcare Academy was the best educational investment I have ever made. I heard about Donna class while living in Milwaukee, WI. I moved here in May 2008 and I enrolled in her August 2008 class. My knowledge of coding was good but my understanding came after taking her class. The class was very informative. Anyone who is looking to pursue a coding career I would recommend Ms. Martin class. Because of Codes Unlimited Healthcare I was mentally and physically prepared and was successful on the national exam.

Codes Unlimited Healthcare Academy was the best choice I ever made in
pursuing my coding career. Even though I had several years of coding
experience I gained so much knowledge I would have not otherwise if I
did not take this course. It was truly an educational experience that
will help me further my career.

I passed my national exam in August 2007. I am currently a CPC-A and
I am employed at Baxter Clinic in Hernando MS. Donna Martin was a
wonderful instructor. The course was well prepared and interesting.
In my opinion, the PMCC curriculum was a great asset in passing the
national certification.

I completed the PMCC course in 2006 under Ms. Martin's teachings.
It was a fast paced, never boring informative learning experience that
led to my success in passing the national exam. This course teaches
you everything you need to know to be successful on the national exam.
Being a registered nurse, having the certification of CPC has further
rounded my well of knowledge in the medical field. I am a reimbursement
consultant for a major infusion company that I work completely from
the comfort of my home yielding a salary over 60 K. If you are
looking for career flexibility, independence and a good salary let Ms.
Martin's class be your stepping stone to success.
Wanda Bamberg, R.N, B.S.N, CPC
As I entered into my coding career I found that the coding foundation
I received from PMCC class was enormous. I learned things that I
didn't even realize that I had learned until I actually came across
it while on the job. I felt like the PMCC manuals were very
informative and easy to study from. I especially liked the coder's
tips in the manuals. Donna is an understanding and compassionate
instructor and she know coding. I will continue to refer anyone
interested in pursuing a coding career to CUHA. I completed the course
in Oct 2006 and passed the exam in Nov 2006. I am presently employed
by MedAssurant, Inc as a Remote Coding Review Consultant.

This class was one of the best classes I have taken and I strongly
recommend it to anyone interested in pursuing a career in Medical
Coding. Donna presents the material in a comprehensively researched,
timely and effective manner.

CUHealthcare opened my mind to the many possibilities of coding. I
had just taken the national exam and failed when I heard about
CUHealthcare. The class had limited seating which allows the
instructor to focus on the students and instructing. The class
teaches you the correct way of coding while applying the every day
working solutions to scenarios. After 12 weeks of instruction, I had
the knowledge and confidence to take the national exam with success
which led me to continue seeking coding knowledge. I encourage
anybody who wishes to explore the challenges of coding to find their
knowledge with CUhealthcare.
