Epic HB- New to Epic but not the revenue cycle in healthcare.
Hey all, happy Sunday! Long story short, I just turned 30 and I've been in the health care revenue cycle my entire twenties so it's a lot of "all I know" on paper and honestly I love it bc I know more than people older than me who're fresh to the field so I know it's great for me to have this opportunity. Prior to turning 30, I've always done personal injury billing & the entire A/R for two private practices. I spent my 20s working for a very small 3rd party billing and consulting company..... It was great bc of the amount of billing/ revenue/ legal experience I got for5 only a high school degree but yeah, I had to gtfo. I received a job offer for a Epic HB position & accepted even after them knowing I've only dealt with personal injury but letting them know the reason I was leaving my prior position was due to me already hitting my ceiling & needed to grow my knowledge of the field as a whole. Nearly 6 months later & things are going great. I'm already responsible for multiple WQ's and having been handling very large claims. The Org I work took the chance with me and I think I am blowing expectations out of the water. I don't wanna sound rude but to you guys in the HB billing world, what has your career been like so far? Is this field financially a good decision to keep going? Is there more advancement? Thanks!
