Continuing Education Units (CEU) for healthcare professionals who are credentialed by the AAPC are worth their weight in gold. CEUs are a necessary tool for all medical coders and auditors as they are not only required for certification maintenance, but because they keep professionals current on industry trends.
An AAPC core credential, such as the Certified Professional Coder (CPC®), for example, requires 36 CEUs every two years.
