  • Strong understanding of anatomy, physiology, and healthcare documentation standards.
  • Ability to work independently while maintaining high accuracy in a detail-intensive, interruption-prone environment.
  • Strong communication, prioritization, and organizational skills, with the ability to manage workload under pressure.
  • Preferred: completion of a Health Information Technology (HIT) program or formal medical coding training.
Benefits
