Hello, my name is Alesia Jones. I live in Pittsburg, CA and I have been working in the healthcare industry for over eight years. My medical background started in Physical Therapy as a medical receptionist, which lead me to an opportunity to work for a large Orthopaedic medical group as the lead Front Office Coordinator. After mastering those positions several years later I was offered a position as the Office Manager in Pain Management where I helped build a practice with four Anesthesiologist. The practice has since changed directions and so have I. Now that I have my CPC, I am searching for a coding position. I am interested in working for a hospital or private practice either from home or on site. Please review my resume below and contact me if you have any positions available. Sincerely,Alesia Jones, CPC
