What I'm looking for

I’m looking to grow in medical coding roles where compliance, audit accuracy, and denials reduction matter. I want steady opportunities to take on complex cases, improve coding quality, and contribute to process improvements with clear documentation and supportive teams.

I’m a Certified Professional Coder (CPC) with 2.4 years of experience in SDS Coding across Obstetrics, Gynecology, Urinary, Orthopedics, Integumentary, and Gastroenterology. I focus on assigning CPT, ICD-10-CM, and HCPCS codes while ensuring compliance with CMS and payer regulations.

As an Associate Medical Coder – Surgery at Optum Global Solutions, Hyderabad, I accurately code complex surgical procedures and maintain a 95%+ audit accuracy rate in coding reviews. I’ve reduced claim denials by 10% through proper modifier use and documentation validation, consistently exceeding productivity benchmarks while applying NCCI guidelines, HIPAA, and CMS compliance rules.
