Sales and billing specialist with expertise in medical coding.
What I'm looking for
I am a dedicated Sales, Billing, and Data Specialist with a strong background in medical billing and coding. My education from Carrington College has equipped me with the necessary skills in medical terminology, HIPAA compliance, and coding systems such as CPT and ICD-10. I have a passion for ensuring accuracy in billing processes and providing excellent customer service.
Throughout my career, I have gained valuable experience in various roles, from being a Delivery Driver for Doordash and Uber to working as a Security Officer at Allied Universal. My time at Aerotek and American Home Health Care allowed me to hone my billing and authorization skills, where I managed denied claims and appeals effectively. I am proficient in using various software, including Trizetto and Devero, which enhances my ability to streamline billing processes.
I thrive in dynamic environments and am always eager to learn and adapt. My goal is to leverage my skills in a challenging role that allows me to contribute to a team while continuing to grow professionally.
