Working at The Coding Source in Peoria, AZ: 1 Employee Job Reviews by Real Employee working in Peoria, AZ Area

What do you like about working at The Coding Source?

"I loved the position because of the variety of locations, the scheduling was done well in advance and offered an opportunity to travel to various cities in AZ. The actual scanning of the patients' charts required numerous judgment calls. Some coding techs completed the scanning by taking a minimum of records, yet completing many charts. I was concerned for the patients, if these are representative of complete medical records."

Do you have any tips for others interviewing with this company?

"Just be honest, be patient because this isn't a horse race, show up on time, be friendly, courteous, don't cut corners and do your job. If you have children or pets to get home to, this may not be for you."

What don't you like about working at The Coding Source?

"If the medical offices were unprepared because they were given advance notice but failed to pull files, they occasionally acted stressed out or annoyed which may or may not have resulted in another office assignment. Some of the techs cut corners or seemed to act as if they were designated to have more authority than was actually the case. If working as a team, I felt that this was undiplomatic and represented the company poorly."

What suggestions do you have for management?

"Hire mature people and specify all of the chart is necessary. If a coder is scanning too much of the chart than is necessary, specify that too. Since there are so many scheduling variables, I felt insulted that I might somehow misrepresent the mission. I felt that the first year's management was more on his game than the second, although this isn't brain surgery. I felt that management occasionally assumed or even took the word of key coding techs when they had a separate agenda. I always try to be even handed and found the office staff very accommodating."
