Dedicated billing specialist with expertise in healthcare administration.
What I'm looking for
I am a dedicated and detail-oriented professional with extensive experience in insurance billing and customer service. My career has been focused on leveraging my expertise in healthcare administration and financial processes to contribute to organizational success. I aim to apply my strong analytical and interpersonal skills to improve operational efficiency, enhance patient satisfaction, and support the strategic objectives of a dynamic and growth-oriented company.
In my current role as a Billing Specialist at Arisa Health Systems, I manage patient billing inquiries and assist with claims submission, achieving a high rate of claim approvals. I collaborate with healthcare professionals to ensure accurate coding and billing practices, and I conduct follow-ups on unpaid claims, which has significantly improved cash flow and reduced outstanding balances. My previous experience as an Insurance Billing Specialist and Customer Service Representative at St. Bernard further honed my skills in processing and submitting insurance claims while maintaining compliance with industry regulations.
Throughout my career, I have consistently demonstrated my ability to provide exceptional customer service and resolve billing issues efficiently. I am committed to maintaining high standards in documentation and data entry, ensuring that all patient records are accurate and up-to-date. I am excited about the opportunity to bring my skills and experience to a new role where I can continue to make a positive impact.
