What I'm looking for

I seek a hands-on medical billing/coding role in a collaborative healthcare practice where I can apply coding accuracy, compliance expertise, and strong communication to improve revenue cycle outcomes.

I am a Certified Professional Coder (CPC) with hands-on experience in cardiology and primary care medical billing, trained at Penn Foster Career School and an active AAPC member. I consistently ensure accurate ICD-10, CPT, and HCPCS coding, verify insurance eligibility, post payments, and maintain compliance with payer guidelines and HIPAA.

I bring strong attention to detail, effective communication with providers and payers, and proven workload and time-management skills developed through clinical billing roles and customer-facing positions. I collaborate to resolve billing issues and use EHR and practice management systems to produce accurate billing reports and patient statements.
