Inspiring Conversations with Nichole McLin of Jewvons Medical Coding, Billing, & Consulting

Today we’d like to introduce you to Nichole McLin.

Hi Nichole, please kick things off for us with an introduction to yourself and your story.
I began my medical career as a Certified Nursing Assistant. I was employed by Eastview Nursing Home in Macon, GA. From there, I went to college to become a psychologist because I was interested in learning more about how the human brain worked. Due to an unfortunate incident, I was unable to complete at that time. I sustained a gunshot wound in the head prior that affected my ability to learn and stay focused. I left the college and was given an opportunity to work with a doctor in Macon, Ga. She was such an inspiration to me. I was trained as her medical assistant, then lab technician, Once I mastered those skills, she moved me to the billing and coding department. She then allowed me to go to school to learn the backend of it. That experience was an eye-opener. I learned certain concepts but saw a need for an instructor that could relay the information better so that the students could learn and be successful in their career fields. Upon finishing the class and passing the exam, I was offered a teaching position with the school. That’s when my teaching career began. I kept going, obtaining multiple certifications and eventually started my own training program. I also became a college professor and program chair. I wrote the MBC curriculum, helped to pass accreditation, and brought cert rates up from 2% to 100% within one year. I became a licensed instructor via AAPC and began teaching my students accordingly. I began to invest more time in my own business and took things more serious. I eventually became a Medical Billing & Coding Contractor & Consultant for anyone providing services using medical codes.

We all face challenges, but looking back would you describe it as a relatively smooth road?
The road has mostly been smooth except for some financial struggles, client/customer commitments, etc.
