I’d take 200k and run….unless the company will consider COLA.

They do. And that was my question. How much should it be to be worth it to move there?

20% higher for COL, but can live good with the salary even if it’s only 5-10% higher. Depends on their budget, but you’re presumably billing higher rates there and should be compensated accordingly.

I am currently a medical biller and coder that just graduated. I am currently in an entry level position because I am still studying to get certified. I will have a year's work of exp in July and will sign a contract for another year because my boss is training me in more I don't know.

I'm wondering what the pay is for someone in my position without certification. I live with family and want to afford to move out but I am single and only make $18/hr. Is that standard or am I being underpaid?
