Work from home in a booming career field? You bet.

HCA Healthcare, a Fortune 500 (No. 63, to be exact) health care company, is hiring a full-time medical coder to its physician services team. 

Applicants must be certified by the American Academy of Professional Coders (AAPC) or the American Health Information Management Association (AHIMA) and should have two years of medical coding or billing experience.

Medical coders – no, not the computer programming kind – translate medical records into a universal alphanumeric classification system to coordinate with hospitals, doctor’s offices and insurance companies. The field is slated to grow 13% by 2026, according to the Bureau of Labor Statistics.
