Job Description

Position Summary

This pre-CTR position is for a candidate with RHIA who has training in health information management, medical terminology, and health information coding, which are prerequisite to be trained to become a CTR. Given the complexity of abstracting and coding cancer cases and the requirement for accuracy of cancer data, this person will not be given work that only CTRs can do before finishing all the mandatory training. The person will perform some basic registry work, after less intensive training, such as screening pathology reports to identify reporting cases and processing and cleaning data. This person will be given some real cases to abstract under supervision as part of the training.

Minimum Qualifications

  • Bachelor's degree in Health Information Management or related field
  • 1-3 years of experience with medical records
  • Must obtain the CTR certificate within 3 years

Benefits

Comprehensive benefits are available to eligible employees and their dependents including health, life, dental, and vision insurance; flexible spending accounts; retirement plans; generous annual and sick leave; 14 paid holidays per year; and an employee health primary care clinic.
