Entry-level Medical Coder with extensive healthcare administration experience.
What I'm looking for
I am an entry-level Medical Coder in training with over six years of experience in healthcare administration. My background includes managing electronic health records (EHR), ensuring HIPAA compliance, and gaining foundational knowledge in medical coding and billing. I am currently pursuing my Certified Professional Coder Apprentice (CPC-A) certification and preparing for the RHIT and CCA exams, eager to apply my skills in a coding-focused environment.
My educational journey includes a Bachelor of Science in Health Information Management from Western Governors University, where I am on the RHIA Pathway, and a Bachelor of Science in Health Services Management from the University of Maryland Global Campus. My coursework has equipped me with a solid understanding of healthcare compliance, medical coding, data governance, and healthcare IT systems. I have also gained practical experience by reviewing mock patient records and applying coding guidelines to outpatient case studies.
In my previous roles, I have managed electronic medical records, conducted data entry, and trained staff on HIPAA compliance. My experience as a Direct Support Professional has honed my skills in monitoring medical conditions and ensuring accurate documentation. I am passionate about leveraging my knowledge and skills to contribute effectively in a medical coding role.
