CPB (Certified Professional Biller) Certification Practice Exam

What does CCS stand for in the medical coding field?

1. Blue Cross Blue Shield Association

2. Beneficiary Services Representative

3. Certified Coding Specialist

4. Consumer Directed Health Plan

The correct answer is: Certified Coding Specialist

CCS stands for Certified Coding Specialist in the medical coding field. This is a professional certification that demonstrates a high level of expertise and knowledge in medical coding. Option A, Blue Cross Blue Shield Association, is not the correct answer because it is an insurance company that provides health insurance coverage, not a certification in medical coding. Option B, Beneficiary Services Representative, is a job title, not a certification. Option D, Consumer Directed Health Plan, is a type of healthcare plan and is not related to medical coding. Therefore, the correct answer is C, Certified Coding Specialist.
