BEWARE:
I enrolled in the medical transcription, coding, billing program. The price of the program is cost prohibitive, and very time consuming. This was not explained to me when I was talked into a $9, 000.00 program which they finance at an extremely high interest rate.
I was not told, the majority of the people applying for this program are not working at all. While the recruiter was encouraging me to sign on the dotted line, and steadily asking me for the phone numbers of other victims. The work load in the program is very heavy, and takes more time to complete than they make you believe.
They give you 10 months to finish the entire program, but for a working person with a family, it really takes a little more than a year. The program administrators realize this fact, because they will let you buy and extension at about $2, 000.00, which can be conveniently added to your loan leaving you at a grand total of $13, 000.00.
Then they changed the program this year. Now you have to buy each class separately. You need 10 classes to complete an entire program. Each class costs about $2000.00 a piece. This new agenda was started this year. So the people who started the previous program under the bundled cost, and are not finished with the program, now have to re-purchase the classes they have left individually. So, you end up paying for the same class twice. Also this cost can be conveniently added to your loan total as well. Leaving you at a grand total of $15, 000.00.
This is price gouging at its finest. If you see any adds for this program...GRAB YOU WALLET AND RUN WHILE YOU CAN...
