Hello,
I have an opportunity to seek a Medical Coding Auditing position. I already have a CPC and am in my last 2 quarters of an associate degree program to obtain my RHIT. I currently am a Coding Specialist for a 120 physician multi specialty physician group practice and I absolutely love coding. I have done physician based coding for over 3 years now. My other interest are in health privacy and security and I thought maybe stepping out into a coding auditor role would allow me to be able to take part in both my interests of coding and security. I have read several descriptions online of what a coding auditor does but I wanted to actually be able to ask someone who is actually doing it what is is like and what it encompasses. What exactly does a medical coding auditor do day to day? I really don't want to loose my coding skills that I have developed over these 3+ years but being a medical auditor sounds like it may just be my cup of tea. Any details you can give me of your day to day job would be so greatly appreciated. Thank you for your time.
