Marilyn brings over 25 years of experience in medical coding and billing to share with students in the Medical Coding and Billing program. She currently holds the credentials of RHIT, CPC, CPC-I, CRC, and CPB. Her coding career has been focused primarily on pro-fee coding for Emergency Department and General Medicine, and also has experience in supervisory and management roles.
She has a passion for teaching and thrills to see students’ confidence expand as they grasp and apply coding and billing concepts. A physician once told her, “My coder is one of my very best and closest friends!”
Marilyn’s vision for the Medical Coding and Billing program is to train students with the skills necessary to assist healthcare providers in reporting patient diagnoses, procedures, and services accurately. Ultimately, to be a reliable “behind the scenes” friend to both physicians and patients while engaged in a fascinating career.
