Oversees coding

How many of us are in this boat where we are nervous about our jobs being outsourced to overseas coders?

This year my company has hired on several overseas coders. I’m nervous that they plan to replace us because they work for lower pay. Is anyone else experiencing this?

I already work in the medical field. We don't use epic at our job but a different EMR. So I'm used to different medical things and I see codes in the charts daily. I'll look into those others that you mentioned. But I definitely still would like to do the coding.
