    I'm so glad that you cleared in the beginning that medical billers don't have to deal with patients, I've been working in customer service for 18 yrs and desperately need to get out and find a job where I don't have to deal with people anymore, which is why I'm here 😊

    • @MedicalBillingMaven
      @MedicalBillingMaven Год назад +12

      As a medical biller, I just wanted to let you know that it depends on where you work if you will or will not have to deal with patients. I've always worked in the Healthcare Provider's office and have always had to deal with patients. I think maybe working in hospitals or bigger organizations, you may not have to deal with patients as Victoria stated.

    Hi, I recently landed a job position as a medical collections specialist and I am currently applying to take my CPB Exam soon. My position doesn't ask my coding much since I often just pay attention to the billing cycle more. I realize that there are alot of information to learn and it's quite a headache. But its a career path I want to take since I already had an interest in healthcare finances but also coding/billing as well.

    • @ContempoCoding
      @ContempoCoding  2 месяца назад

      Congratulations on landing your position as a medical collections specialist and pursuing your CPB exam-that’s an exciting step forward! It’s normal to feel overwhelmed with all the information at first, but your interest in healthcare finances and coding will keep you motivated. Take it one step at a time, and don’t hesitate to build on your experience in billing as you grow into the coding.

    How do you get started as in to work as a medical billing and coding worker from home while you're studying for it without having to need a one or 3 to 5 year experience as a demand I mean, everybody has to start somewhere from the beginning that everybody starts with experience You get your experience as you're working and you're learning!! what would you recommend where to start from working from home?

  • @apdroidgeek1737

  • @erikaruv22
    @erikaruv22 Год назад +1

    I just finished the coding master class and it was helpful but i do have some questions that i hope you or someone else can answer.
    Since the Preppy course is billing and coding is it enough to prepare and get you ready for the AAPC CPC exam, does it get in depth like other CPC only programs? If i want to get a job a coder only, not biller, is Preppy a good choice or another program that only focuses on CPC?

  • @heart2heart2023
    @heart2heart2023 2 месяца назад

    I see many Pro Fee Coding jobs now. Is this a more complicated area or should CPC-A still apply? I've been reading up on it and it seems to just focus on the physician E&M codes.

    I enjoy your videos so much! I love your complete explanations. I do chart reviews and recently was asked to look at some Nursing Facility notes and I know they follow new guidelines. Are there any books or resources ( current) you are aware of that would be helpful?
    Thank you in advance.

    • @ContempoCoding
      @ContempoCoding  Год назад +1

      Thank you for your kind words! I'm thrilled to hear that you enjoy the videos and find the explanations helpful.
      For Nursing Facility notes, I'm not aware of anything specific to that facility type other than just the general coding resources. Good luck!

    Do you have any advice for newly Certified Billers? I've applied to over a 100 jobs and still am not getting the opportunity to gain work experience in billing or as a Medical Receptionist. What can I do differently to improve my chances of being seen by employers? I tried reaching out to friends who are in healthcare field as a way of getting my foot in the door, but still no luck. I am hitting a wall and have no idea what to try to get my opportunity in this industry, which I've been trying so hard to get into the field, but with no results. It seems as though I am overlooked because of my lack of experience, which I can't gain if I am not hired.

    • @brittanilaree8787
      @brittanilaree8787 Год назад

      There are a lot of job opportunities posted on Indeed as far as medical receptionists, or medical customer service representatives, to get your foot in the door. Have a good resumé and even walking into a medical clinic or any type of medical practice with your resumé and handing it to the office manager is the sometimes your best bet. Many blessings on your journey 🙏

    Hi Victoria! I've been an LPN for the last fifteen years and am currently in my last semester in a tech college Medical Coding Specialist program. I have a B+ average in school but I feel like I will suck at this job in the beginning. I know there are productivity and accuracy parameters and I am feeling massive anxiety. Do most jobs have a training period or will I be expected to be error free right away?

I did not want to work on the coding side, mainly cause I understood the billing side more. Can you tell me what you think would help me even be considered for a job working in the healthcare field somewhere, i.e., certifications?

    • @ContempoCoding
      @ContempoCoding  Месяц назад

      The free career masterclass does not teach you medical coding, but does tell you about a career in medical coding. It also discussing the training program I recommend, Preppy. Preppy stands out because it offers an externship, which is a real-world experience that can be incredibly beneficial as you're starting in the field. This hands-on practice can give you a significant edge and confidence. Additionally, Preppy provides a college certificate of completion, adding an extra layer of credibility to your resume.
      These features, particularly the externship, can make a substantial difference in preparing you for the workforce and helping you feel more equipped and confident as you transition into your new career path.
      You can find more information and insights at preppy.org to see how it aligns with your needs and goals. Whatever you decide, I wish you the best in your journey into medical billing and coding!
