"Quality Experience"... In Medical Billing

Laurus Medical Billing Graduates....

YOU'VE GOT THE EXPERIENCE!

I just talked with a Laurus Medical Billing graduate who got  an interview for a job that asked for 2 years experience.

How did she do it?

She told the truth about our training...

Laurus College offers real cases from real medical files as part of our education.

Then she went in with a portfolio filled with examples including multiple "Approved" CMS 1500 Forms.


The Laurus Medical Billing program has been carefully crafted to include real world experience rather than book knowledge.  You don't just read about medical billing at Laurus,  you learn by doing!  Explain this with confidence in your cover letter and at your interview.  And don't just tell them, show them.  It will have 10x the impact.

Medical Billing Posted Positions

Sometimes medical billing candidates miss out on opportunities because the jobs are posted with such a huge variety of names.  In larger billing offices, the position is often posted by the specific process name rather than the term medical billing.  Above is a process chart from one hospital.  The jobs would usually get posted by the specific part of the process rather than the more generic term, "medical billing".

Here is a short list of some medical billing names used by different medical organizations:

Medical Billing Interview Preparation

I just got a call from a Doctor's Office requesting that we send them a candidate to replace one of our previous graduates who was advancing to a better job. I asked what software system they were using and found out it was a program called Amazing Charts. Curious, I Googled Amazing Charts and found they had YouTube tutorials available on a link from the website.

You should always go into a job interview prepared. If you want to impress your interviewer, ask about the software they use when they call you for the interview. If you are doing direct contact into the un-posted job market, why not do a survey call before you walk-in with your resume. Find out what doctors use which programs. Then quickly familiarize yourself with the programs being used. You might even mention your familiarity on your customized resume or in a cover or search letter.

Here is an introductory video for "Amazing Charts"
