Insurance Verification and Medical Billing Specialist focused on accurate, compliant coverage.
What I'm looking for
I’m a dedicated Insurance Verification Specialist with experience managing insurance claims and ensuring patient insurance eligibility. I verify coverage detail-by-detail, improve verification processes, and stay focused on compliance with health regulations to support revenue goals.
At Elite Therapy Solutions, LLC, I verify patient eligibility and insurance coverage using Availity, Navinet, and other web-based tools. I perform financial clearance by confirming benefits, coverage limits, deductibles, and authorization requirements, and I calculate accurate patient financial responsibility. I also resolve complex, pending, or denied authorizations by communicating with teams and insurance companies, and I maintain accuracy in system databases and tracking logs.
Earlier in my career, I worked as a detail-oriented medical billing/coding specialist and medical coder. I obtained referrals and pre-authorizations, reviewed patient charts for documentation discrepancies, assigned CPT and ICD codes, transmitted claims electronically or by paper, posted and reconciled insurance and patient payments, and followed up on unpaid claims. I researched incorrect payments and EOB rejections, addressed discrepancies with insurance companies, and completed secondary billing.
I also bring a strong analytical background from my work as a Senior Statistical Programmer / Statistical Programmer II supporting blinded and unblinded clinical trials. I served as a Programming Lead for 5 years and co-led multiple projects, providing technical guidance to lower-level programmers via email or telecommute—an approach that reinforces my attention to accuracy, documentation, and quality in high-volume work.
