Dear Sir or Madam,

I am a highly motivated, hard-working individual seeking to continue my love of working in the medical field. On my included resume, please note that I am quite familiar with computers, and am able to adapt to new software quickly. Considering my familiarity with both computers as well as both billing and coding knowledge, I would be an asset to your team.

I feel as if I could be a major asset to your team as I not only have experience with coding and billing but also have experience in different areas of practice; office, family practice, specialty, on-call, hospital and surgical. I do not mind working long hours, odd hours, or extra shifts as needed to get the job done in a timely fashion.

I sincerely appreciate you taking the time to review my resume. I’d be happy to provide greater detail about my skills and experience during an interview. Please contact me at your earliest convenience.

Thank you very much for this opportunity,

Melanie Hampton
