Community hospital just hired a contrast coder who charges $5.00 per record coded. Last week she coded 300 records. The HIM manager would like to hire a FTE instead of using a contract coder. She finds an experienced coder who wants a salary of $25.00 per hour. The hospital has a 30 percent benefit. What is the weekly salary of the contract coder?

    The contrast coder's weekly salary last week was $450.00.

    Explanation:

    The CC charged $5.00 per record coded. The previous week she coded 300 records.

    Write it like:

    $5.00 x 300 = 1500.00

    Though remember the hospital has a 30% benefit.

    So:

    1500.00 x 30%*=450.00

    *0.30 if you can't do the % sign on the calculator

    Sorry if it doesn't work out!
