Jackie Kmet, Medical Billing and Coding

On My Path: Jackie Kmet, Medical Billing and Coding

My path has led me through working trauma in the operating room, to sitting back in a classroom.

I studied health care and discovered I’m more of a back-office woman.

I worked as a surgical tech and discovered I didn’t belong.

I listened to people cry

I made sure they were safe

I made sure they were sterile

I made sure they stayed alive

A path of blood sweat and tears, a path of endurance; losing my heart and finding it again.

Now, my life is here. My goals are clear.

Tools of my trade:

My brain spurting out medical terms

My computers shining screen

My ICD 10 coding book

Strengths of my spirit:

I am strong

I am smart

I am powerful

I am determined

My path is mine alone. Each step forward is mine to take. I will succeed at RTC.
