Are You Changing Careers?
I'm working on a story that deals with making a transition but staying within HIM. I'm seeking out people who've made the switch from MT to coder, from coder to cancer registrar, from coder to MT-along those lines.
Out at conferences, and even sometimes on phone interviews, I often have people ask me about "the other side." MTs question me about coders, what they do and what training is needed. Coders ask similar questions about MTs. Plus, two of our bloggers, Jeanne and Carol, are currently going through transitions of their own right now, so we figured these transitions that are occurring within HIM warranted an article in our print edition.
If you are currently going through a transition, or have already made the switch, from one field of HIM to another,
contact me and we can set up a time to talk. You'll get a chance to see the article before it goes to print to make sure everything's accurate. I look forward to hearing from all of you adventurous types out there!
