Debbie Burke
@debbieburke
Financial Operations Specialist focused on accurate AR/AP, billing, and compliance.
What I'm looking for
I’m a Financial Operations Specialist who strengthens financial accuracy by owning account administration, billing, and reconciliation across the full lifecycle. I’m known for finding recurring billing gaps, resolving discrepancies fast, and improving workflows so errors drop and records stay audit-ready.
In my current role, I manage administration for approximately 1,500 resident accounts and lead audits, reconciliations, and variance analysis to support compliance initiatives. I investigate billing issues and coordinate with Finance, Billing, and Operations teams to ensure timely, accurate account resolution.
Previously, I managed a $4 million accounts receivable portfolio while maintaining Days Sales Outstanding (DSO) below 90 days. I analyzed aging reports, investigated short payments and billing variances, and escalated trends after root-cause review to improve financial processes and support cash flow objectives.
I’ve also handled denied and unpaid insurance claims to increase payment recovery and reduce aged receivables, and I’ve supported full-cycle accounts payable/receivable and treasury operations (deposits, payment postings, and bank reconciliations). With tools like NetSuite, Salesforce, and ERP systems—and experience with HIPPA Compliance, Sunshine Act, and SOX—I bring disciplined attention to detail to every account.
