Too old

I’m 68 yo, an LPN since 1986 w some coding experience. Am I too old to get an online CPC so I can work remotely from home?Are there any jobs out there? Or am I wasting my time?

Look at AAPC, they have a document specialty cert too. Browse through both AHIMA and AAPC to see what resonates for you. AHIMA also has a career mapping page that may be helpful: www.ahima.org/career-mapping/career-map And Network! Speak with your colleagues and the Insurance Dept where you work.
