Wiki New CPC-A Seeking Entry-Level Medical Coding Opportunity

[goncalvesrenata45@gmail.com]

Hello everyone,
My name is Renata, and I am a newly certified CPC-A actively seeking an entry-level opportunity in medical coding. I Have completed my CPC training and successfully passed the CPC exam. I am highly motivated, detail-oriented, and eager to continue learning and growing in this field. I am open to entry-level, remote, or on-site opportunities and would greatly appreciate any guidance, advice, or leads. Thank you in advance for your support.

Have you looked at Kodehealth.com? I believe it is part time and 100% remote. It might be a good place to start getting experience. Let me know if you have success with them as I am prepping for my CPC. Good luck, Laura

I've looked into Kodehealth.com, and while it does look like a good resource, it requires you to have at least 1 year of coding experience that you can add to your profile before you will be accepted. I'm also a CPC-A looking for work, so I'll probably bookmark it for later after I've gotten at least a year of experience elsewhere. Good luck finding employment! Trust me, I know it's tough starting out because everyone seems to want someone with a lot of experience.

I checked out their website also, and it clearly states they require your bank account information. This seems to me unusual to actually post this requirement. Obviously, you would need to provide bank account information upon accepting an offer. It seems to me, however, that it should not really be stated up front on their website. Proceed with caution, as maybe it is a scam?

Thank you so much for the information. I am bummed they too are looking for experienced coders. I believe the bank account info is to be paid by them but then I haven't taken a deep look at the site. I wish you the best of luck this year getting a job. Laura

Thank you for the information. I wish you the best this year in finding work and getting the experience. It does seem like a long road. Good luck to you. Laura

KodeHealth is not a scam. They need your direct deposit to pay you for any projects you work. There isn't a job offer or an interview process.

When you sign up, you see a list of open coding assignments. You can request to qualify for whichever open assignments you want. You can theoretically start coding immediately after your profile is verified, so your direct deposit is needed immediately.

Some of the coding opportunities will have a test you have to pass to start coding on the project. Some of them you can request to join the project and your profile will be sent to the organization for review. It just depends on what that particular client wants.

If you don't want to give them your regular bank account information, you can always link a different account that you only use for contract work.

(Honestly, if you intend to do contract work and side projects regularly, I'd suggest having a separate account for that anyhow. Makes it easier to see exactly what you're earning from contract work across multiple organizations.)
