Oct 15    The "Fruits" of our Labor

Louisiana Healthcare Institute launches the first-of-its kind federally registered apprenticeship program in medical history.

Training in Medical Coding, Billing and Compliance in Louisiana meets the President’s decision to enact job-creation-boosting apprenticeships throughout the country.

September 17, 2017, Baton Rouge, LOUISIANA A new initiative by the Louisiana

Healthcare Institute is meeting the President’s executive order on expanding apprenticeships and boosting the creation of jobs in America, and creating new opportunities in the medical industry.

“This will be the first of its kind in the State of Louisiana, and possibly the United States,” stated Sherie Thomas, President of Louisiana Healthcare Institute. “We will be offering the first federally registered apprenticeship program on Medical Coding, Billing and Compliance. Professional expertise is in high-demand in the medical and health industry, but trained, certified and skilled professionals are absent from the market. We are happy to meet the spirit and goals of the federal government’s new policy to boost apprenticeships to offer new training and job avenues that our economy needs,” Thomas added.

The apprenticeship launch will be held on October 15, 2017 at 6:00 p.m. and is being sponsored and promoted by Louisiana Workforce Commission, Apprenticeship Division. The ‘Fruits’ of our Labor The Benefits of an Apprenticeship Program will take place at the Louisiana Healthcare Institute.

“We’re also giving individuals, companies and organizations the opportunity of sponsoring the apprenticeship program. Organizations will gain a unique chance of being highlighted as sponsors of this prestigious and ground-breaking initiative, ‘Medical Money Makers’, which can significantly impact all organizations involved,” Thomas highlighted.

People looking for new career paths, as well as, any professional in the medical and health industries, are invited to attend this event. The apprenticeship program will highlight those who are willing to obtain skills through hands-on experience, education and training in the rising job market that has a strong urgency to new skilled professionals.

Health practices, clinics and hospitals, large and small, can rely on medical coding, billing and compliance professionals to solve inefficiencies that tend to result in

needless losses and translates into growing revenues. Healthcare businesses can also rely on the experts from Louisiana Healthcare Institute to run swift and high- performing practice analysis and coding audits that can save a great deal of costs and improve operational and financial outcomes.

As a leader in the field of healthcare training, consultancy and advisory services, Louisiana Healthcare Institute is taking a leading role in offering first-class training in the field of medical coding, billing and compliance, and in supplying highly skilled professionals in the medical and health industry. Therefore, it is an honor to pioneer

the inaugural apprenticeship program.
