Discover The Coding Clarified Story
Coding Clarified was founded by Janine Mothershed, CPC, CPC-I in 2015. With more than 15 years of professional coding experience, Janine’s biggest passion is helping others earn the same success she’s had. To put it plainly, discovering medical coding saved her life.
Becoming a parent at a young age, Janine was the first member of her family to attend community college and earn an Associate’s Degree. Her fondest wish was to be a stay-at-home-mom and raise her kids. Unfortunately, this didn’t pay the bills.
As a young family struggling to pay the rent, Janine made the life-changing decision to study medical coding. This enabled her to work from home and be with her children. Janine’s first “real” job after becoming certified paid $18/hour. She turned this into a contract position with The Coding Network and then a CMS auditing role with Optum.
Going from living paycheck to paycheck, Janine soon made more than $70,000 per year and had the freedom to do things like take her kids on vacation, buy a new car, and save for a down payment on a house. Although Janine is 100% bootstrapped, she realized that you don’t have to be.
Since founding Coding Clarified, Janine’s program has helped more than 1,000 students realize their dreams of self-sufficiency on their own terms. Why wait? Call us today or enroll online below.

Understanding Medical Coding and Its Impact on Healthcare
Medical coding is the language of healthcare finances and data. It translates all the complex medical procedures, diagnoses, treatments, and equipment into a set of codes that everyone in the healthcare world can understand. When you visit a doctor, undergo a procedure, or get lab work done, there’s a whole process behind the scenes where specialists meticulously review your medical records and assign these codes.
These codes help in billing your insurance accurately and getting healthcare providers paid for the services they’ve provided. Medical coding is the behind-the-scenes work that keeps the healthcare system running smoothly, ensuring that everyone gets paid fairly and that patient records are accurate and up-to-date.
