What I'm looking for

I seek a revenue-cycle role focused on reducing denials, improving reimbursement, mentoring teams, and ensuring HIPAA/CMS-compliant billing processes.

I am a detail-oriented medical billing specialist with over nine years of experience handling Durable Medical Equipment (DME) claims, AR analysis, and denial management across U.S. payers. I consistently submit accurate claims and audit documentation to ensure compliance with Medicare and payer guidelines.

I have hands-on expertise with billing and practice management platforms such as BrightTree, Epic, eClinical, Meditech, Centricity, NIKO, Health-fusion, Waystar, Cerner, Nextgen, Allscripts and QuickBooks. I routinely navigate payer portals (CGS, Noridian, Availity, Optum) to verify eligibility, check claim status, and submit appeals.

My roles have included training and leading team members, generating weekly and monthly claim-status and performance reports, and assisting physicians with documentation compliance. I have maintained high claim accuracy — including a reported 98% insurance claim accuracy rate — and proactively resolved denials, refunds, and worker's compensation claims.

I prioritize HIPAA and CMS compliance while driving improvements in quality and reimbursement. I seek to apply my analytical problem-solving, leadership, and strong communication skills to improve revenue cycles and reduce denials for a patient-focused organization.
