Summary

Experienced Health Care Information Lead with 17+ years of comprehensive expertise in the medical field. I transformed thousands of paper charts to electronic health records, while learning every aspect of the medical field from HIPAA laws and regulations, medical terminology, scanning and filing documents to releasing records to attorneys and government agency's to training employees. I enjoy motivating others and have a strong work ethic, adaptability and exceptional interpersonal skills.
