Long hours M-Thurs,overtime available on Fridays (sometimes mandatory if behind on calls).Have gained experience and more knowledge in Healthcare Information.The supervisors are nice and willing to help when needed.I like that many hospitals and facilities offer assistance to persons who may be indigent and/or temporarily not able to pay for care provided.I
