“ I want to take a moment to express how pleased I have been with the coding services ARMCO Partners has provided to our organization. The quality of coding and responsiveness from your team has certainly proved to be extremely impactful in meeting and exceeding our weekly/monthly coding production and A/R Goals. ”

In addition to the work of the ALA, we keep each coder current on industry trends and regulations with briefings on Coding Compliance, Decision Health, and MedLearn Publishing Case Studies/Newsletters. We also make use of the Medicare Learning Network as another of our continuing mandatory educational requirements of ARMCO Coding Specialists and Coding Reviewers.
