About the Instructor

Sherrina Hansen

Sherrina is a Healthcare Compliance Professional. She holds multiple certifications including Medical Coding, Medical Auditing, as a Compliance Officer and an Instructor. In her 20 plus years of experience, she has educated all levels of healthcare professionals from those with no medical background, to those in the C-Suite and Board of Directors. She has a soft spot for healthcare providers and staff, especially when it comes to compliance. Compliance is full of rules and regulations that everyone is expected to follow. In spite of years of extensive education to be able to work in the healthcare field, compliance education is sorely lacking. People are expected to follow the guidelines, and sometimes get into trouble for not following them, when they may not even be aware of the guidelines they violated. Just like providers and staff try to protect their patients, She strives to protect the providers and staff.
