What I'm looking for

I am looking for a role that allows me to leverage my credentialing expertise while fostering a collaborative work environment and supporting healthcare initiatives.

I am a dedicated Credentialing Team Lead with extensive experience in healthcare administration and a proven track record of enhancing payer relations and improving operational efficiencies. Currently, I lead a team of Credentialing Coordinators at BayMark Health Services, where I have successfully impacted accounts receivable collections, exceeding monthly goals by over 7%. My role involves maintaining enrollments and supporting credentialing initiatives for over 300 facilities and 2,500 providers, showcasing my ability to manage complex processes and foster collaboration across departments.

Throughout my career, I have held various positions that have honed my skills in recruitment, credentialing, and administrative support. As a Recruiting Manager, I developed targeted strategies that significantly expanded the sales team and contributed to revenue growth. My experience as a Credentialing Coordinator has equipped me with the knowledge to navigate the intricacies of provider enrollment and maintenance, ensuring compliance with both private and public payers. I am passionate about building strong relationships and driving results that align with organizational goals.
