With plenty of jobs available, why does a new coder need the CCA?
New coders who earn the CCA will immediately demonstrate their competency in the field, even if they don’t have much job experience. Earning a CCA demonstrates a commitment to coding even for those who are new in the field. CCA holders also will distinguish themselves from non-credentialed coders and those who hold credentials from other organizations that do not require the higher level of expertise necessary to earn AHIMA certification.
