I'll be honest, as a new CPC with no medical experience, you should really just take any type of entry level HIM job and not worry about the pay.
I started out making $11.50 an hour, working a charge entry position, but I quickly gained experience and moved up. So, while it sucked making so little, it has totally paid off in the long run, as I now make $75K.
