[email protected] To Whom It May Concern:
You need a sharp Medical Coder with great attention to detail and excellent management, communication, coding skills. I believe that my
previous experience and my education make me an ideal candidate for your open position.
My educational experience prepping for the AAPC Medical Billing & Coding has paved the road for me to be quite a fitting addition to your team. It was here where I found my curiosity for decision making – I currently AAPC certified; this in turn, has given me a very solid and thorough background. Furthermore, I have a strong detail oriented, punctual, and diligent personality. With that, I believe I am capable of performing several tasks. More importantly, I can aid in other tasks as well, such as event planning, public relations, and outreaching.
Furthermore, as an intern and auditor at Med-Strategies Inc. over this past summer, I had quite the experience coding, billing, and abstracting for outpatient facilities. I had the pleasure perform abstraction and coding of assigned encounters for certain services. More importantly, I was able to utilize various coding books, procedure manuals, and online encoders as tools to improve my medical billing and coding skill set.
Although I acquired many skills during these past few years or so, I hope to only continue to expand and grow in the future. I genuinely believe that being a part of your team is one of the necessary next few steps for me to further develop and grow for the years to come.
With that being said, I am very eager to contribute my enthusiasm and my skills to your team. I hope my resume will give you a greater understanding of my qualifications for the open position. Please do not hesitate to contact me if you would like to schedule an interview or if you have any questions whatsoever.
I would greatly appreciate the opportunity to work and learn from you and your talented team. I look forward to hearing back from you soon!
Thank you, in advance, for your consideration.
Sincerely,
Nirmala Chudasama
