A community of 30,000 US Transcriptionist serving Medical Transcription Industry
I completed an associate's degree last winter and got my RHIT credentials. I have applied for a couple local coding jobs, which I did not get. They both had a coding test I had to take and pass before they would interview me. I failed both of these tests miserably. It was embarrassing. One lady who was the HIM manager asked me if my program even taught me how to code! Yes, I have my RHIT, but I don't really know how to code! I know the basics, but obviously not enough to get a job. Are there any programs that can brush you up on your coding skills? I don't need an entire course, just a little guidance I guess. I'm back to doing transcription, which I hate, and I'm so frustrated and feel like I wasted two years of my life!
