International Remote Nursing

[roscoenurse]

Hello all, I am considering moving to Nicaragua. I am an RN,BSN and my primary experience is in a SNF. I am currently an ADON at a SNF/LTC facility. I am interested in a remote (computer based job). I do not have much official experience with MDS billing/coding and this seems to be the bulk of required experience for remote type jobs. I am not CCM certified although I certainly meet the requirements and may get the certification if it helps?

I am looking at the possibility of medical transcription and take a course online or at the local C.C. I understand that the transcription jobs do not pay much but i will not require that much (although the more the better). Not sure if remote chart review for an insurance company is possible, once again no official experience with MDS billing other than working with our MDS coordinator to assist them with billing questions. Any input is appreciated. In the end I may have to change my course all together. No matter what happens I plan to volunteer at the local clinics in Nicaragua any way I can to show good will. Any insight is greatly appreciated. Thank you! Roscoenurse.

I don't know that any US company will hire you.to work remotely outside the US. For a HUGE number of reasons.

I 'think' most of the medical transcription that is outsourced is being done by companies in India and the Philippines.
