Not published
BLS does not report coding auditors separately; this is every payroll medical records specialist, so it runs lower than most audit roles pay.
Annual figures are BLS hourly wages × 2,080 hours. OEWS covers wage-and-salary workers only, so it leaves out the self-employed (including freelance billers and coders and billing company owners), workers in private households, overtime pay and most bonuses.
