Inpatient Medical Coding Auditor - Remote

Overview

KODE is creating a new category in the medical coding space: the “Uber” of medical coding. The KODE platform has created a unique opportunity to solve a growing healthcare labor problem by bringing “gig” work to existing coders and those who haven’t considered medical coding as a career path before. Koders on the platform take control of their careers while gaining valuable experience and mentorship from coding masters who are already a part of our community. They work when, how, and where they want, earning extra income along the way.
