  Hi everyone, just a quick question to all the coders and billers out there...I just started a new job at a facility where one of the responsibilities of completing the "EMR" record for each patient...I am to also assign the coding (not too comfortable with this, as I have only very, very limited knowledge of coding after unfortunately paying for an online course, only to realize it really was not something I would enjoy, or be very good at?)...is this legal?.... I feel like the prior transcriptionists were at times "making their best guess (which seems very dangerous and costly to the company, etc....)... if this is not something I should be doing...should I respectfully bring this up to my new supervisor (who has herself "taken over" the MT department, as it was run by "another level" as part of their nonprofit, government funded mental health facility.  Thank you for all of your insight... I appreciate your time.  Sincerely, Jen
