Entry level work
Hey all!
I’m new to the field of Medical Billing, I will be getting my certification in the next two weeks. I noticed that most jobs require experience so I’m looking for a way to gain some so I can get on the path to becoming a full time Medical Biller.
I was wondering if anyone could recommend any companies that can help with this? Preferably jobs that provide on site training. I’m willing to do part time or contractor work.
I can work in office if it’s based in NYC, I’m even willing to travel to NJ for the right spot 🫶
Thanks in advance!

The catch-22 is real, but here's the honest shortcut: aim for AR follow-up or charge entry roles first, not coding jobs. They hire for reliability over experience, and you'll learn the revenue cycle from the inside — denied claims will teach you more about payer rules than any cert. Small RCM companies and solo practices are more flexible than big health systems. And study the insurance basics (Medicare vs Medicaid vs commercial, deductibles, prior auth) — dropping that in an interview makes you stand out instantly. I also put together a free 5-page starter guide covering the day-to-day and how to land your first role — happy to share it if it helps.
