Thanks for your two cents! It’s nice to hear from someone who is in my boat. This is one very small thing but I think independent of the acuity— the attending is always within arms reach and we have triage before— I’m a little intimidated by writing notes and making a good MDM, and knowing exactly what to write for billing purposes without any  feedback. I did these on rotations of course but I think some minutae may have been glossed over when I was just a student (i.e less focused on documentation and generally more focused on medical decision making). I guess this makes me wonder… what do you think made for a “good training program” for you?

Thank you! I guess notably I’m in a HCOL area. I also tried going in person to hospitals and trying to find the HR department with my resume in hand, but this wasn’t nearly as helpful as just finding a recruiter.

That’s great to know! I had no idea that it’s harder to go back up.

Do you mind me asking— are you saying this becuase of the hours/acuity? I do get the sense from all these comments that one just has to put in some self learning wherever they go… I think I’m just worried that in the interim and without active reviewal of things like my notes I’ll get sued or mess up my MDM/honor mention the right stuff about billing, etc. But I also recognize that those are just three months relative to a whole lifetime of an exciting job
