Carol Bolinger
@carolbolinger
Healthcare financial analyst specializing in Medicare bad debt recovery and full-cycle accounting accuracy.
What I'm looking for
I’m a results-driven Financial Analyst focused on Medicare bad debt reimbursement and revenue optimization. I conduct lookback analyses, prepare and amend cost reports, and reconcile large-scale healthcare financial datasets to recover unbilled balances and improve reimbursement eligibility.
My background spans AP/AR, payroll, reconciliations, month-end close, and financial reporting across healthcare, CPA firm, and multi-entity environments. I investigate patient accounts in EMR systems (Epic, Meditech, Allscripts, MedHost) and validate eligibility using ATBs, transaction reports, and remittance data to support audit readiness.
I’m known for delivering accurate, data-driven insights under tight deadlines while juggling multiple concurrent projects. I also mentor new analysts and partner cross-functionally to ensure timely deliverables, compliance with regulatory standards, and stronger cash flow outcomes.
