Success Stories
Hello, I’m Shaik Mohammed, and I hold a Master’s degree in Computer Applications (MCA). I never imagined myself in the medical field, but I stumbled upon medical coding and found it to be a fascinating blend of technology and healthcare. That curiosity led me to join the medical coding course offered by FIDES.
At first, it wasn’t easy. The course covered complex systems like ICD-10, CPT, and HCPCS—terms I had never heard before. Coming from a non-life science background, it was all new and challenging. But my background in computer science helped me a lot. I realized that many of the analytical and logical skills I developed during my MCA studies translated well into medical coding.
I was one of three students from Andhra Pradesh without a life sciences background. Thankfully, our trainer, Sushma ma’am, was incredibly patient and supportive.
She explained each topic multiple times—sometimes three or four times—until we fully understood it. Her dedication made a huge difference. I’m also deeply thankful to Sumi sister and Sushma ma’am for always encouraging us and believing in us.
I would especially like to thank FIDES and the Tech Mahindra Foundation for giving me this wonderful opportunity. Their support and the quality of the training have opened up a new career path for me—one that I’m genuinely excited about.
This journey has taught me that with the right guidance and determination, it’s possible to succeed even in a completely new field. I’m looking forward to continuing this path and building a meaningful career in medical coding.
