Ariel Johnson
@arieljohnson
Certified Professional Coder with medical billing expertise and strong clinical documentation compliance focus.
United StatesWhat I'm looking for
I am a Certified Professional Coder skilled in CPT, ICD-10-CM, HCPCS/Modifiers and claims processing, committed to accurate billing and coding compliance. I combine a strong foundation in anatomy, physiology and medical terminology with practical experience in CMS-1500 and UB-04 claims workflows.
In clinical roles I reviewed records for completeness, identified documentation discrepancies, partnered with providers to clarify requirements, and managed claims submission and denial follow-up to optimize reimbursement. I have hands-on experience in chiropractic coding and ongoing professional development to stay current with coding guidelines and payer policies.
Prior roles in client-focused esthetics and claims specialization strengthened my communication, customer service, training and problem-solving abilities; I apply these skills to improve office procedures, support team learning, and maintain HIPAA privacy and security standards.
