Lauren has been in the coding field for 10 years with her focus being on ED coding. You could say she has a passion for emergencies!
She has always loved the diversity that working in the ED coding area brings daily. She started off coding ER accounts, worked her way up to ED coding lead and now is the ED Coding Team Leader at SSM Health for the past 2 years. She has been with SSM Health for a total of 5 years. She codes for all 7 hospitals with the SSM Health STL network and her team consists of 16 ED coders and billing coordinators. The coding staff applies all the facility side charges, including EM, infusions/injections and CPTs.

It’s been a great last year under Seth Katz leadership; MoHIMA accomplished a lot of objectives and really got the ball rolling in the area of social media. My plans are to continue on with what Seth had started and add a few new goals and objectives to this year’s plans. I feel honored to be the President of a great association and looking forward to working with the new and remaining board members to provide our MoHIMA members with the resources they need to do their jobs and keep them up to date on new issues that surround the healthcare world today.
Sincerely,
Teresa Thomas, BBA, RHIT, CPC
MoHIMA President 2016-2017
