Supply Chain Management online course now available from Gatlin Education Services

FORT WORTH, Texas – Gatlin Education Services announced today a Supply Chain Management Online Certificate Program is now available. The 240-hour course will be offered through Gatlin’s partnership with major colleges and universities.

“Today, every business and individual is touched by a supply chain,” said Tim Perlick, a supply chain management senior associate with the Rutgers University School of Business. “Increasingly, we must rely on effective supply chains or networks to successfully compete in the global market and networked economy. Supply Chain Management recognizes the importance of properly managing each of the components of a supply chain to build and deliver value to customers.”

Designed as a comprehensive course, the Supply Chain Management Certificate Program examines managerial behavior, organizational strategies, incentive alignment, leadership, ethics, sales and marketing management, accounting, finance and corporate governance, operations management, human resources and information technology.

“To successfully compete in today’s distribution industry, companies must continually deliver value to their customers while effectively managing its resources and generating a profit,” said Stephen Gatlin, founder of Fort Worth-based Gatlin Education Services. “To meet these challenges, leading organizations require experienced managers who are trained in the dynamics of Supply Chain Management.”

Medical Billing and Coding Course Now Offered by Gatlin Education Services

FORT WORTH, Texas – Gatlin Education Services announced today that a new course focusing specifically on medical billing and coding is available for January 2007. The 240-hour course will be offered solely through Gatlin’s partnership with major colleges and universities.

Medical billing and coding was a component of the administrative medical specialist course. The new course has removed the administration sections and will utilize multimedia and interactive elements to help students prepare for the CCA national certification exam.

“We are always listening to the students so that we can provide them the most relevant content,” said Sarah Karr, vice president of academic affairs for Gatlin Education Services. “Overwhelmingly, students wanted a course that focused more on billing and coding and less on administration.”

Upon completion, students will be able to register patient information, perform insurance verification, pre-authorization and referrals, code and bill insurance claims and perform collection activities.

“Skilled medical billing and coding technicians are in high demand since there is a lack of both formal training programs and sufficient resources to provide on-the-job training for coders” said Stephen Gatlin, founder of Fort Worth-based Gatlin Education Services. “Demand continues to grow as health insurance companies, regulators, courts and patients increasingly scrutinize medical tests, treatments and procedures. Federal legislation requiring use of electronic patient records will ensure that anyone with billing and coding skills is irresistible to perspective health care employers.”

Students who wish to study administration along with medical billing and coding may take the Administrative Medical Specialist with Medical Billing and Coding course, also available through Gatlin’s educational partners. The 300-hour course will also prepare students for a position as a medical receptionist or front desk position.

The 120-hour course will be offered solely through Gatlin’s partnership with major colleges and universities and enrollments are currently being taken.

“We’ve made the course a lot of fun,” said Elizabeth Nofs, creative director for Comma Project LLC. “We use a lot of real-life examples in order to make the course more practical and memorable and focus on teaching the skills the employers want their employees to have.
