Detail-oriented healthcare administrator transitioning into IT and cybersecurity.
What I'm looking for
I am a detail-oriented and analytical professional with over 20 years of experience in healthcare administration, medical billing, data compliance, and patient information systems. My extensive background has equipped me with a robust skill set in electronic records, insurance auditing, and secure data handling. Currently, I am pursuing cybersecurity training to transition into an IT or cybersecurity role where I can leverage my experience with sensitive data, system integrity, and regulatory compliance to contribute to digital security and infrastructure protection.
Throughout my career, I have managed electronic data entry and claim submissions while ensuring compliance with federal guidelines. My role as a Medical Collector/Billing II at Baptist Health has honed my ability to verify insurance eligibility and resolve errors through detailed audit processes. I have also conducted coding reviews and analyzed data for billing errors, significantly improving audit outcomes during my tenure as a Reimbursement Analyst at Inmed Group. My commitment to accuracy and compliance has been a driving force in my professional journey, and I am eager to apply these skills in a new domain.
