Los Al Coders Network

This group is dedicated to providing networking opportunities for local coders. Participants represent certifications in AHIMA, ACMCS and AAPC as well as some billing organizations. Participants are employed in the inpatient, outpatient, professional, home health, nursing facilities and DME companies. The Los Al Coders Network was started in 2004 and meets every month at the Los Alamitos Medical Center located at 3751 Katella Avenue, 2nd Floor Conference Room, in Los Alamitos, California 90720. You are welcome to attend our meetings and get to know other coders in your community! Since January, 2010 participants have studied ICD-10. We are led in this endeavor by Victoria Menchaca who is an approved AHIMA ICD-10 Trainer. In 2010 our focus was ICD-10-CM. In 2011 our focus was ICD-10-PCS. In 2012 focus was on coding cases using both ICD-10-CM as well as PCS. In 2013 we are reinforcing Anatomy and Physiology, one system at a time. We are led in this endeavor by Mourad Morkos (medical doctor in Egypt). In 2014 all sessions will be dedicated to working through cases and assigning ICD-10-CM/PCS coding schemes. We are prepared for the transition to ICD-10 and welcome any inquiries. Thank you for your interest in our group.
