Hi everyone.. First off, I want to say that I am studying to take my CPC exam next month and I want to THANK everyone for posting all of their tips for studying. I really appreciate it.
When you interviewed for coding positions and they asked you what $$ are you looking for, what did you say? I'm assuming this answer will vary depending on if you have certification, experience or no experience.If I decide to leave my employer, I have no idea what to ask for hourly/salary. I have worked in the medical office setting for over 14 or 15yrs. I currently work at a Hem/Onc office where I do code chemo/radiation/scans/hosp/ov and enter all of the charges. I have been doing this for over 3yrs. Before this, I did some A/R work with cardiac cath coding.
I am not trying to talk about what people make here but just get a feel for what is acceptable to ask for and what's not. If you don't feel comfy discussing $ in the thread, you are more than welcome to private message me.
Thanks![Smile :) :)](data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7)
