Andrea Auman
Summary
I started working at Just Save in Asheboro, NC when I turned 16. When Just Save closed down I transferred to Lowes Foods in Asheboro NC, I worked there until an In Home Healthcare Opportunity came. I left Lowes Foods and went to work for a lady named Angie Burney. I started working for her in February 2021. I mainly had two clients full time Monday through Friday. She had some issues with her company, the state contacted her and she could no longer provide patients for me to work with. I ended up out on my own doing Home Health. I mainly had two clients at this time as well and picked up a couple more that needed my help and had reached out to me. I am still currently working with one patient in Thomasville NC, Monday through Friday 9 to 5. I have received my diploma in Medical billing and Coding, and just received a passing score for my CBCS exam. I now have my certificate in Medical Billing and Coding. I am currently looking for a Medical Billing and Coding Job.
