CodingCertification.Org is owned and managed by Laureen Jandroep, CPC who is also Sr. Instructor. The mission of CodingCertification.Org is to help new and seasoned coders with their certification education – first to get certified then to maintain certification.
This is done via articles, videos and practice questions many of which are freely available through out the site. Some are paid products like our popular “Coding Certification Review Blitz” and CEU Webinars. We have a new discussion board where aspiring coders can ask their questions about getting certified and one where certified coders can discuss ways they’ve maintained their CEUs for their respective credential
About Laureen Jandroep
Laureen Jandroep, CPC, has over 20 years in the healthcare field. She graduated as an Occupational Therapist in 2006 and before long was running a successful therapy practice which did over 1.6 million in billing per year with a less than .06% rejection rate. Once Medicare changed how rehab companies were reimbursed this business was closed and Laureen eventually started a new company dedicated to teaching Medical Billing and Coding. This business was eventually sold and is now run by the AAPC as part of their online course offerings.
Currently Laureen works full time for CodeRyte, Inc. as a Coding Analyst and on the side teaches medical coding though her company CodingCertification.Org.
She founded the Southern Jersey Chapter of the AAPC and also served on the AAPC National Advisory board from 2003 – 2006 in addition to being a consulting editor for several “Coding Alert” publications for the Coding Institute.

Other Team Members
Alicia Scott, CPC, Instructor
Alicia has been working with medical coding for almost seven years. She first learned about medical coding while working in a medical records department at a resort town hospital near where she was raised. Through the years she has held several jobs in the medical field from, CNA, EMT, Pharmacy technician and Medial Records Abstractor and Analyst. Outside of the medical field she has worked as a Real Estate agent, and owned her own on-line retail business. The medical field has always been where she felt the most comfortable.
After high school Alicia was accepted into a nursing program at a local university in Missouri. She started the program but did not complete it due to a sudden illness. During that time she got married and started a family. With intentions to always go back and finish her nursing degree she got the opportunity to work in medical coding instead. She joined the AAPC and became certified as a CPC in 2011.
Presently Alicia lives in West Texas and is married with six children. She is working towards her Masters in Health Care Administration with an emphasis on education. She is an instructor at a private college teaching medical coding and billing and medical law and ethics. Having taken many on-line classes through the years to complete her degree she feels very comfortable with both face to face and on-line learning. Alicia will tell you that not only does she love medical coding but she has a passion for teaching it.
