Hello, my name is Ruby. I am a certified medical coder with 14 years of experience in Patient Financial Services and Health Information Management (HIM). I have six years of experience coding outpatient accounts for a hospital. I also have over five years of medical coding tutoring experience on several platforms. I currently hold two AHIMA medical coding certifications, including the Certified Coding Specialist (CCS) and the Certified Specialist-Physician Based (CCS-P). My first certification was my CCS-P, taken in ICD-9-CM, and my CCS was taken in ICD-10-CM. I also earned my RHIT certification in late 2019. I earned my BS in HIM in 2022, and in December, I earned my CPC certification via AAPC.

I have completed classes accredited by AHIMA in the following subjects: introduction to computer applications, basic medical terminology, human form and function, introduction to health information management, legal aspects of health care, basic pathophysiology, pharmacology for allied health, international classification disease, diagnosis coding (ICD-10), CPT procedural coding, health information management statistics, health care quality management, HIM computer application, alternative delivery systems, and introduction to management.

My goal is to help medical coding students gain more knowledge and confidence with ICD-10-CM, ICD-10-PCS, CPT, and HCPCS.

I am now excited about sharing my knowledge and expertise with coding students. I love medical coding but medical coding comes with many challenges and it is important to find a good medical coding mentor and tutor. If you have any questions about medical coding please contact me. Thanks!

Great Tutor!!!

Ruby is smart and a great, great tutor. Any area of my study I have a question on, she not only explains, she directs me to the source. Great communication skills and personality. Wyzant is lucky and so are we.

Lyn, 3 lessons with Ruby

Ruby is the BEST!!

Just after one lesson I was already feeling a little more confident in my coding abilities. I had 6 lessons with her before I took my test and I passed!!!! She’s very patient. She helped me catch all the little details I would miss in the codes in order to get the correct answer. I can’t thank her enough!

Estrella, 6 lessons with Ruby

Very knowledgeable and patient tutor

Ruby was very patient. She understood that I was new to the coding world and struggled with understanding diagnoses and pronunciation of medical words. She did an excellent job explaining the cases we discussed during our session. I could complete my assignment and exercises within my workbook with Ruby's assistance. She is an excellent tutor.

Wendy, 1 lesson with Ruby

Very nice

She is very nice and knowledgeable. She helped me come up with a plan rather than telling me she should teach me everything to get more sessions out of me. I am very satisfied! :)

Cassandra, 1 lesson with Ruby

Knowledgeable

She was very nice explain me about Billing and Coding. We made an operative report together and at same time she explained it. I recommend her services. She was patience, on top of everything she speaks Spanish.

Todd, 2 lessons with Ruby

Medical Coding

I love working with Ruby. I currently run a few companies and have decided to take an accelerated medical coding class as my plan B. My time has been very limited and it’s been a bit overwhelming. She has made learning enjoyable and is extremely patient. I hesitate to leave this review because I don’t want to lose her :)

Michelle, 7 lessons with Ruby

Knowledgeable and Patient Tutor

There is not enough good things I could say about Ruby. She was well prepared. I had sent some cases before my tutoring session so she was aware of the material I wanted to discuss for the evening. I couldn't have been happier. When are tutoring session ended I took the advice she had given me and it helped me code some additional exercises I was working on by myself. I felt so much better just in the hour I spent with her and look forward to are next session in a week. Ruby is very smart, and she just didn't give me answers she had me read things aloud, and let me process the information. I definitely feel truly blessed that are paths have crossed.

Amazing Tutor

Today was my first lesson on CPT and basically got the concept on how to find the information. She helped me organize my book and helped me understand things and provided more info I didn’t know. I will be using her a lot more until I finish this course. Thank YOUUUU! Made me feel much more comfortable. Couple lessons later abstracting information and let me just say.... She’s the best! She has literally been my shine when things get really difficult. Coding isn’t a walk in the park, but with every lesson with Rudy I feel so much more comfortable. A lot more work to do and I’m positive that with her help I’ll be set. Thank You Rudy!

Thorough and Knowledgeable Tutor

I was having trouble with some outpatient physician coding cases and Ruby was very helpful in getting me over the hump. She is flexible with her time and a great communicator; in about an hour, she was able to explain concepts that had eluded me for months. Highly recommended.

Dee, 1 lesson with Ruby

Knowledgeable and Patient

A better understanding of how to follow the PCS steps for finding g out the correct code. Ruby is very good at her teaching style. She ask a lot of questions and answers your questions. Walks you through finding the correct code
