Catherine Cochran has more than 16 years experience in a medical office field from working the front office to working in the business office of a small and large clinic. Her knowledge and experience ranges from Patient Data Entry, Charge Entry, Receipt Posting to billing and working medical claims. Catherine's career began back in October 1995 when she first enrolled herself in a Medical Terminology class at Rose State College. In February of 1996 Catherine enrolled in a Medical Transcriptionist and Insurance Filing & Coding class at DeMarge College. June of 1996 Catherine began her career as a business office manager for two oral surgeons and from there transferred over to the billing department in June of 1999 where she became an Insurance Billing Clerk. In February of 2000 Catherine went to work for a billing company where she became a Receipt Poster as well as an A/R Representative up until July of 2005, when the company she worked for moved out of state. At that point, Catherine decided to take a different direction, instead of working claims she went to work for a large insurance company paying claims as a Claims Examiner. This position lasted up to March of 2006 at which time she decided she preferred to go back to working claims so in May of 2006 she went to work for the company she still now works for as a Medical Billing Specialist. During this time she has experience in Charge Entry, Patient Data Entry as well as posting of receipts.
