I was wondering if anyone could help me, I am new to the billing/coding field. I earned my CPC-A certificate last September. I currently work in an ASC that does GI, ortho, podiatry, and plastics. I currently do the coding for GI but doing the billing and insurance piece for the rest of the specialties with someone else who mainly does the billing. A job opportunity as become available where I would do all the billing and coding for ophthalmology only. I currently earn $19/hr and am trying to decide how much to ask for regarding this new position. I work in the northeast. Even though I am new to the billing/coding field I have been in the medical field for over 10yrs working as a MA. Any thoughts? TIA!
