With the help of fellow registrar'in West Virginia I wrote a proposal and supplied my boss with the information needed to work from home. The 2 of us in the registry work from home 7 days of a 10day pay period and we love it. The coders in our facility have also started working from home.

We are currently looking at offering tumor registrars the ability to work from home. One question we have is how to track time for hourly employees. Does anyone have any suggestions?

I'm currently negotiating an abstract-from-home position with my employer. The HIM/privacy director is on board but there is hesitation from administration due to "liability issues". What of this type issues have you encountered and how have you overcome them?

Are there any Trauma Registrars out there that currently work at home or headed in that direction. If so can you tell me what it takes to make it successful?

What exactly does any abstractor do?
I'm a student in an associate's program in HIT and haven't yet learned about abstracting. My goal is to eventually work from home.
Thanks!

I think the future of cancer abstracting will be home based. I have done at home abstracting part time and liked it very well.
