Towanna Helms

To whom it may concern,

I am a certified ICD-10 medical coder. I have an associate's degree in applied science and have a RHIT with Ahima. I have experience in coding inpatient, outpatient and resolving edits in both areas.

I started as an outpatient and inpatient ICD-9 coder. I took the classes for ICD-10 and became a coder for outpatient and inpatient. I have also worked on claim edits in both areas.

I have an associate degree in applied science from Moraine Valley Community College. After I graduated, I took a class in psychology and became a CNA to gain more experience in my field.

While learning ICD-10, I took a nursing anatomy class which was a requirement at St Mary's where I worked.
