My name is Shondia, and I am a seasoned professional in medical coding with 14 years of hands-on experience in medical coding and auditing. Throughout my career, I have amassed over 20 years of comprehensive experience in the healthcare industry, gaining insights into various aspects of healthcare operations and regulations.

In addition to my coding expertise, I have dedicated more than ten years to tutoring aspiring medical coders. During this time, I have developed effective teaching strategies that empower students to master the nuances of coding. I hold four distinguished certifications from the American Academy of Professional Coders (AAPC), including the Certified Professional Coder (CPC), Certified Professional Medical Record Auditor (CPMA), Certified Risk Adjustment Coder (CRC), and Certified Professional Coder-Instructor (CPC-I). My journey in certification began with the CPC, after which I pursued and obtained the CPC-I, CRC, and, ultimately, the CPMA.

In 2009, I earned my Bachelor of Science in Technical Management, a program that equipped me with essential leadership and operational management skills within a technical context. I am currently advancing my education by pursuing a master’s degree in Healthcare Informatics, a field that intrigues me due to its blend of healthcare and technology.

My passion lies in medical coding and in mentoring students to help them grasp the complexities of the field. I am committed to fostering a learning environment that builds students' knowledge and confidence in key coding systems, including ICD-10-CM, ICD-10-PCS, CPT, and HCPCS. My ultimate goal is to equip future professionals with the skills they need to succeed in the ever-evolving landscape of healthcare coding and compliance.

Very knowledgeable and helpful

I asked Shondia to give me guidance on coding guidelines regarding coding from medical records. I already have my CPC, and needed a refresher on coding guidelines. She answered my question which was how to find deficiencies in the medical record (EMR). She explained how and showed specific examples, and pointed to specific direction in the ICD-10 manual that I can reference for any future uses. She answered all of my questions.

Very patient

Shondia was very patient and would explain and explain again without sounding condescending . Made me comfortable speaking freely and without judgement. I leaned so much in just a short period of time.

Great Tutor

Shondia has been absolutely amazing! We've been working on test-taking techniques, and her help has significantly improved my understanding of CPC. I've already scheduled three sessions with her and look forward to scheduling many more.

Mrs Shondia help me with my CBT. I was having a difficult time understanding the CPT and Mrs Shondia made it so easy to understand the coding process. She’s really good at Medical Coding. Thank you for your help.

Knowledgeable and patient

Although I've only had one tutoring session with Shondia thus far, I can already see that she is knowledgeable and understanding of what I must do in order to grasp the curriculum. I'm excited to have more sessions in the future.
