Meet Emma Wilson, team leader in coding in the Health Information Management (HIM) department. Emma has worked here for 40 years – all at Candler in the HIM department. As team leader, she is responsible for assigning work to her fellow coders and assists with inpatient accounts. Hospital coding is an alpha and numeric code that represents individual conditions/illnesses or procedures. Emma also manages any contract coders we may need.

“I really enjoy the coding part of my job. I’ve done it for so long now, but there’s still always something to learn because things can change. I also like the people I work with. We have a really good group of folks in our office, and we work well together as a team. All the people here are so nice. When I was in college at Armstrong Atlantic State University in their health information management program, we had a chance to do training at all the area hospitals. I knew back then I wanted to work at Candler. I have always loved Candler, and it’s really because of the people.”
