Any medical coding and billing specialists here, I have a question?
Asked by college_student
I'm currently in school studying for my associate's in medical billing and coding. I'll graduate with honors in May, and at the end of this month I'll be certified in IT for Healthcare, and ICD-9. But I'm concerned because every job posting I look at wants someone with 1-5 years experience! How can I get a job in this field with no experience? Will my education put me above the other applicants. Was it hard to find a job with no experience? I do have healthcare experience, just not in coding.
