What I'm looking for

I’m looking for an entry level work-from position in medical billing and coding. I want to use my HIPAA-focused, detail-driven skills in insurance verification and claim processing while supporting organized, patient-centered workflows.

I’m a compassionate Personal Care Assistant/Home Health Aide with hands-on experience providing companionship and emotional support, while accurately documenting vital statistics and health metrics. I’ve supported chronically ill patients through daily living assistance, personal grooming, meal preparation, and household tasks while maintaining a positive rapport with patients and staff.

In my care roles, I coordinated daily needs and health routines—assisting with dressing and feeding, monitoring intake, responding to call lights, and communicating important patient information to supervisors. I also helped organize medications and medical schedules, and maintained cleanliness and sanitation to support safety and infection prevention.

Now, I’m currently in school for medical billing and coding, looking for an entry level work-from position. I bring strong proficiency in medical billing fundamentals (including revenue cycle management, posting payments, insurance verification, and HIPAA compliance) plus tools like Greenway and MS Word, and I’m ready to apply my attention to detail to accurate claims processing.
