Wiki New CPC-A coders in Jacksonville, Fl

Create Wiki
I lived in jacksonville and there weren't ANY jobs that would Hire CPC-A. Due to that reason i moved to orlando. Hospitals here will Hire CPC-A's. Baptist Hospital doesnt really even hire CPC and wont even consider you unless you have CCS,RHIT with an A.S degree, Mayo you must have a degree (i went to all the AAPC meetings and met the coding staff and was turned down), Memorial really doesnt hire that ive seen. The job you posted was a staffing agency, If you are new to Coding and get Hired that will be a pretty good start!!


I wonder if any of the AAPC Chapters in Jacksonville are trying to get more CPC-A's Employed? Thanks for that post! I hope to see more Openings for New Grads!!!

Try McKesson. They have an office in Jacksonville. They hired me when I was a CPC-A but that was years ago when they were called Per-Se.
 
I just wanted to express how grateful I am for all the feedback. It just makes me that more EXCITED about finding my first coding position.

Thanks again,

Elisa Blair, CPC-A
 
I was able to find a medical job two months after graduating from school, but... I started at check in. I'll admit it took me a year to get a coding position, but good things really do come to those who have the patients to wait...

Patients... I still wonder how that word became used to mean people going to see a medical professional because most patients don't have patients... Just sayin'...

I tried them too when i was a CPC-A. (Jacksonville) This was in 2010, i did well on the ED coding questions (I had to answer them verbally). But they want you to have 10,000 10-Key speed when typing :eek: So i didnt get the job because they said "I wouldnt be productive enough". I hope this has changed since then and became more relaxed.
