I realize that there are a number of factors that affect salary, but I wonder if my pay is what it should be. I won't disclose how much I make, so please don't ask, but depending on the responses I get, I may acknowledge if I'm (comparatively) underpaid. I have a bachelor's degree in accounting, though very little experience in that field. 9 years recent billing experience. CPC-A (I expect to remove the A fairly soon), CPB. And I'm wondering what kind of benefits are considered fairly standard in healthcare. Based on job ads I've seen, I think I could be doing better in that area. I understand that a lot of credentialed people are struggling to find any kind of entry-level position, so I hope I don't come across as greedy or ungrateful for what I have, I just want to know what my reasonable expectations should be.
