Clinical Coding Trainer Opportunity
A rare and exciting opportunity has arisen to be part of the management team here at Lancashire Teaching Hospitals NHS Trust, as part of One LSC, in the role of Clinical Coding Trainer.
Are you a qualified Trainer looking for a change of scene or to broaden your experience in regional specialist areas such as Major Trauma, Neurosurgery, Neurology, Vascular, Oncology or Renal? If so, then we want to hear from you.
Alternatively, if you are an experienced ACC Coder looking to take the next step in your coding career then you’ll get all the help and support you need from an excellent network of qualified Trainers in the region whilst working towards qualification.
Until that time is right for you, however, you can make a significant difference to the development of Trainees and Coders working for the LTH team by sharing your expertise in guiding them through the day-to-day coding of a wide variety of clinical specialisms to ensure Coders are confident and effective in their roles.
Working closely as part of the management team you will be supported to play an important part in service development, help further the learning identified through audit and address any performance issues that may arise.

Your very own career expert that helps elevate your application to the next level.
The role is mentally demanding requiring long periods of concentration in coding data, understanding, interpreting and communicating complex Clinical Coding issues and delivering multiple deadlines in a changeable and pressured work environment.
LTH admitted care activity covers a wide variety of clinical specialisms, giving the coding team a broad skill set.
Our Coders work with a range of electronic systems including scanned patient notes and as such all roles involve full daily use of computer screens.
We can offer remote working for much of your time, flexibility with hours, and the ability to control your own workload in line with the requirements and demands of the role.
As part of OneLSC we believe collaboration is a key factor to providing an outstanding clinical coding service for all the partner trusts.
