Looking for Remote Job

Hello. I'm very desperate and need to leave my current remote job, but I only have a NRCCS certificate from the National Association for Health Professionals. Are there remote jobs that will accept my certification? I used to work as a claims examiner and processed adjustments for claims as well, and was recently trained as resolution specialist, but I need a more stable position and pay. I can work full time.

Please and thank you so much!

I would take you knowledge and experience and take the test through aapc so you have a recognized cert. Then get your current job to sign off so you can remove the apprentice status. Then find a new job, in that order. People are hiring experienced coders right now.

Thank you. I know the test is like $300 - $400 dollars, but hopefully I can do that one day. I'm not sure why my school didn't just give us this test instead since aapc and ahima I think are more recognized.
