I’m a semester away from getting my associates degree in medical coding and reimbursement, and I have a few questions about the medical coding field.
-
Whats your usual day like? In a cubicle all day?
-
How hard is it to remember guidelines?
-
Whats expected of you in your job? Do you have to meet a quota every hour of number of cases coded?
-
The certification test, how hard is it to pass?
-
Is your job very stressful or is it just like any other job?
-
I have both a bachelors degree in Information management (I concentrated on healthcare for my minor I guess you’d call it) and I’ll have an associates degree in Medical Coding and Reimbursement, do you think it’ll be easier for me to find a job in medical coding and do you think I can ask for higher pay based on having two degrees?
Thanks for your time. I appreciate the help!
