Work in Canada?

Hello,


Does anyone know if we are able to work for international companies - such as ones in Canada with our CPC and CCS?   I know ICD 10 is "international", but not all countries use exactly the same classification systems.  Just curious.

Glenda or Linda?  Do either of you know if we could work in Canada?  Or live in a foreign country and work remotely for a US company?  Exploring options.


thank you!

The above link will take you to an article on AHIMA's website comparing Canada, Australia, the UK and the US in the realm of medical coding.  I wasn't sure of the date and some of the sources the author used were over 10 years old but it gives some idea of the differences.

I hope this is helpful in some way.
