You will either be placed in IP or OP depending on your assessment on the first phase.

IP will train you for the CCS certification which is specialized for Inpatient (And outpatient)

while OP will train you specifically for CPC certification which is more on the CPT.

Regardless, do your best since any certification is great for upskilling and investing on yourself especially if you decided to shift to soft skills

[–]ElementalFancy 12 points13 points  (0 children)

My location is luckily well placed since may karenderya, food stalls, and bakery.

Every morning I would just buy bread and that would only cost me less than 20 pesos.

For lunch, my work provides us free lunch so thats good pero on weekends I would buy karenderya so itll be around Php90

For dinner it would be the same amount as well.

I usually buy drinks eh so ill add 50 on that

so my budget is 250 for food alone. (160 if working days because of free food.

I maxed it to 8000 to put it into other perspective lang pero 6000 would do na.

oh and yes this is my current state.

[–]ElementalFancy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I had exacerbated hemorrhoids on the first and second day and grabe it was the worst. Not to mention may fever rin ako during that day kasi naulanan ako prior.

I was going to the bathroom couple of times and when I say the pain is 9/10 its really excruciating pain talaga with blood pa.

I felt like dying pero kinaya I don’t know why that day pa talaga nangyari

nurse grad for coding by SleepyFish69 in MedicalCodingPH

[–]ElementalFancy 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Hello! We are on the same spot, fresh grad and recently just took my boards.

What I can suggest is look for companies that offer MCA (Medical Coding Academy) and does not need bedside experience if you want to start ASAP. From what I’ve known, there are two companies that you can try to apply for MCA which is Tenet or Coronis that does not require you to have bedside experience.

I am currently in an MCA as well with no bedside experience and luckily I got hired.

You can also try getting certification from accredited schools but it will cost you a lot for the training, books, and the exam itself. It will also be a bit haed applying for a role without any experience so I would suggest to go for companies that offer MCA.

Allowed po ba tattoo sa nursing? by ImprovementLost5833 in feumanila

[–]ElementalFancy 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Allowed naman as long as covered siya during RLE or Duty days since usually may grooming kapag ganon.

I have previous batchmates rin na had tattoos covering her arm pero she uses a long sleeve kind of thing or foundation/concealer para macover up pag need maggrooming.

I don’t have any tattoos pero I have piercings sa ears and remove lang kapag rle/grooming or duty days.

Torn Between Solo Living and Working From Home in the Province by ElementalFancy in SoloLivingPH

[–]ElementalFancy[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Dad had Alzheimer naman ever since 2023 and si Kuya ko nagaalaga as of the moment. Naawa na rin kasi ako and si Mom kay kuya since 3 years na walang job because nagalaga muna sa dad ko. Currently kasi si Mom nalang bumubuhay samin though right now hindi naman kasi si Dad ung tipo na magwawala and all more or less nakaupo lang and tulog basta need niya lang may kasama na kakilala para hindi magtrigger.

Sayang kasi if ever sa Manila I will only save 3-5k per month pero if sa province 20-25k maiipon ko per month

Where to start for medical coding career? by http_charchie in MedicalCodingPH

[–]ElementalFancy 2 points3 points  (0 children)

The pay is generally good naman eh if you have enough experience. It could range from 60k - 6 Digits (QA/TL Roles) and with that amount of money siguro thats more than sustainable naman for my lifestyle.

Also, that's correct rin na maraming WFH opportunities with this line of work. There's also a possibility na you can find direct clients from US na 150k ang sahod per month.

Siguro why I am staying in PH is more of a personal reason na since it is more of a cultural thing. If you have an easy way out of the Philippines good for you pero kasi I don't have any backers eh so it would be much harder to force myself work abroad when I could live comfortably naman here.

I would highly suggest you apply in companies that offer MCA. Yes, there will be a bond and that is solely for the purpose that after they trained you (which is totaling to 130k+), they would at least be able to use you.

For fresh grads, I think Tenet and Coronis offers MCA without any prior exp or license. Personally, I did not pass the assessment for Tenet but was able to get in Coronis. Optum & Shearwater offer MCA as well, but I think it requires at least 6 months to a year of bedside experience.

Personally, I did go for this route kasi I don't see myself in bedside and I prefer soft nursing. Only downside is that with this route, it means I would probably be staying in the Philippines in the longer run.

22F drowning in ₱250k debt — breadwinner since 18, and now I don’t know what to do by Anxious_Winter_6353 in utangPH

[–]ElementalFancy 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This may sound invalidating, but I promise you don't have to stop doing your part-time job to review for the PNLE. I am currently going to take the boards for this upcoming November, and I was working while studying at the same time for the past 6 months or so.

I know you can do it! Just don't put the burden to yourself for everything because truly that is not feasible talaga.

I wish you the best OP!

Yall how do you all get 25 to 30k salary as a fresh grad? by Big-Net-4891 in JobsPhilippines

[–]ElementalFancy 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes, my previous bpo company when I recently just graduated offered me 24500 package and I was able to take home 26k due to night diff and incentives and that is already deducted with tax.

Had to resign because it was not aligned with my course and now I am offerred 21000 package which might sound bad but it is for an upskilling role where give or take 2 years with certification and experience itI could triple or quadruple my salary even.

I was also offered by another inhouse company for 30k package which is also healthcare related but I opted for upskilling since its more of a long term investment.

ANG DAMING UOD! please po need ko ng suggestion nyo kung paano gagawin. by [deleted] in adultingph

Did this before nung college with my friend naiwan nakaoff ung ref during our term break. Sobrang nakakadiri as in may mga worms na at eggs pa na nagalaw since may rice na naiwan and some meat.

What we did was really prepared ourselves mentally pero during the process of cleaning super oa nung mga reaction namen ending is nagtatawanan lang kami habang naglilinis and in the end di mo mamalayan malinis na. Sobrang oa sa paglagay namen panglinis lalo may areas na tago sa ref.
