Yes and in medical transcription too. You do not do hands on patient care. Now, can you get CERTIFICATION through AHIMA is another question. I've never seen any criminal background check type of questions on their applications. I know that www.med-certification.com doesn't require a criminal background check. You can also work in the field in a doctors office w/o any certification, but most hospitals do want the AHIMA certification or the CPC.

To the best of my knowledge this occupation is not licensed or regulated by the state, but there is no way to answer this question. Private employers set their own criteria for hiring employees.

Can a convicted felon become an Emergency Medical Technician in the State of Florida?

I live in Kentucky, and I am also a convicted felon. My felony charge was 9 years ago. Last year I wanted to go to school to be and EMT. The technical college that I wanted to enroll in does a background check, and if you have any infractions, they will not enroll you for any medical courses. I know this is discouraging, but it is what we have to try to get around. Currently I am applying for a pardon from the governor, but there is about a .5% chance that I will be approved.
