Coder – HIM Professional – Mom of 6
I’m all of the above and more!
I’ve thought about doing this for such a long time and now that I’m doing it I’m nervous! What will people think? Did I pick a good theme? Will anyone ever “follow” me? Just a few of the questions running through my mind right now…
My background is in health information management and I’ve worked hard to educate myself and learn all aspects of practice management. Coding, billing, follow-up on claims, working with patients on payment arrangements are a few of the things I really enjoy. Lately I’ve come to realize the benefits of knowing all I can about leadership, team management and appreciating continuing education. In this challenging time of transition in healthcare, you can never expect to know everything and you must always be open to change.
I’m excited to engage with you – I hope we can learn from each other and truly succeed in our goals – whatever they may be! Of course, I should add that I have a wicked sense of humor at times and comments I make could easily be taken out of context by new friends joining my circle. Fair warning – I will be honest and straight with my opinions but when you need advice or a verified source for information I share here, you will never be disappointed.
I’ve decided to include a personal page here as well, I genuinely want to really get to know my followers and we all have amazing stories to share. Coders and billers as well as anyone else come to a point in their life not only by what they do – but what they have experienced in their life overall. This is the core of what makes each of us unique and awesome in our own individual way!
AHIMA and medical practice management are true passions in my life although, not mentioning how blessed I am to have six fabulously inspiring kids would be unfair. Managing a busy household and learning the art of delegation has helped me tremendously on the professional side. They support me and help me so much – I am truly blessed!
