AE & Associates, LLC was founded in 2000 by Arnold and Ester Ardevela, a husband and wife medical team. Based in Corona, they began the company in response to a growing need for interim staffing of credentialed healthcare professionals in the Inland Valley. Arnold was a physician from the Philippines and has over 20 years of coding experience and Ester was a Nurse Practitioner prior to coming aboard as Vice President. They were able to successfully combine their work experiences and network of colleagues to form a team of high level Health Information Management professionals. So many of the company's credentialed coders and auditors have clinical backgrounds. With their unmatched service and highly skilled team members, AE & Associates has grown steadily over the years and currently provides services to large HMOs, county facilities, and independent hospitals and clinics throughout California and various parts of the nation.
