Can anyone recommend a great starter HCC information? I would like to read more about this concept to see if this is something I want to pursue but have not found any sites which is informative only promotional/sales. Thanks for any help
 
Here are some good resources:

https://www.aapc.com/certification/crc/
https://hmsa.com/portal/provider/Risk_Adjustment_in_Medicare_Advantage_Plans.pdf
https://www.cms.gov/CCIIO/Resources/Presentations/Downloads/hie-risk-adjustment-methodology.pdf
https://www.medirevv.com/blog/what-is-hcc-coding-understanding-todays-risk-adjustment-model - a little promotional, but still good information

Also, I work with HCC/Risk Adjustment on a daily basis. Feel free to message me any specific questions you might have.

Hope this is helpful!
 
Hello,
I'm also wanting to take on CRC but would like a bit more info on it, is it worth taking the course? I've been in the Med. field since 1995 as a Med Assistant but done ins. and billing for the most part. I have a ton of experience in many ways, would I be doing myself any good financially by getting this certification?

Where do you work? And are they hiring? I have my CPC and just completed a risk adjustment training. I have been applying for jobs my fear is the pre employment exams
