What I'm looking for

I’m looking to grow within an organization that values growth, employee achievement, diversity, and loyalty—using my expertise in accurate charge capture, medical billing, and documentation improvement to help ensure reliable claims and coding quality.

I’ve worked as a Charge Specialist since 7/2014, reviewing patient records, dictated reports, and physician/provider notes to ensure correct procedure documentation and billing. I analyze daily audits and error logs, identify charge and documentation opportunities for improvement, and extract data from the patient’s EHR to determine correct surgery times and care-level details.

In my current physician practice and corporate settings, I assign appropriate billing codes for Banner Health outpatient care using the company’s Charge Description Master and standards tied to HCPCS and DRGs. I also research EHR details like surgery timing, medical imaging, and medications to interpret dictated reports and resolve claim corrections.

Earlier in my career, I handled billing, payments, and EMR data entry for multiple providers, posted to close month end, and supported prior authorization workflows (including processing denials and obtaining authorizations). I bring strong CPT/ICD-9 and medical terminology/anatomy-and-physiology knowledge, paired with steady, detail-driven communication and organization.
