I have recently contacted Houston area for externship and the people to contact on AAPC list are no longer working at the facility or not accepting new externship. one extern site last year had me come in to interview stated she would call me because they were going to have a new project ambulance coding. Ever time I called she would lie to me stating that she would email me an offer letter or would call me back. That happened in 2018. Has anyone else experienced this?

Hello Fellow Coders! Below you will read a request from one of my students from the Medical Insurance Billing and Coding program at Vista College:
"To Whom it May Concern:
I would like to connect to a coder who is proficient in the use of L codes so that I might be better equipped to complete my guidelines presentation. These are the questions that I need some help with:
- How does fraud play into codes within the chapter?
- What are the most common mistakes made using the guidelines of your chapter?
- How many billable codes are within your chapter?
- What are the most uncommon code(s) in your chapter?
- What are the most used code(s) inside your chapter?
Any help would be greatly appreciated! "
Looking for experienced ortho coder for small coding project, $50 – ASAP
I own my own medical billing company in Sacramento, CA, called OneHealth Practice Management. I am also a member of the Sacarmento AAPC chapter. I currently have a need for an ortho coder to code 2 days worth of a patient record for a legal matter I’m assisting with. The codes I have for the patient are 2-3 years old and no longer exist in current CPT version. I need to know what the current codes would be based on the patient’s past medical record. It really is a small project, but I need someone who is certified as a coder and has at least 3 years of ortho coding experience.
As I said, it is a very small project, but I am willing to pay $ 50 total to get this project completed (basically, write up the codes on a CMS 1500 form for each of the 2 days). It can certainly be done remotely as I can send you the necessary files HIPAA-secure electronically. I am looking to get this done as soon as possible. If you have the requisite experience as an ortho coder and are interested in the project, I would appreciate you sending your resume to me at [email protected]. You can also email me at that address if you have any other questions.
You would have to sign a BA, as well.
Thank you very much.
