What I'm looking for

I seek a role leveraging home health and utilization review expertise where I can coordinate interdisciplinary care, ensure Medicare compliance, improve outcomes, and reduce rehospitalizations.

I am a versatile, patient-centered Registered Nurse with over 13 years of progressive clinical experience across home health, surgical, pain management, cardiothoracic, oncology, and insurance-based environments.

I bring strong expertise in clinical decision-making, medical necessity review, Medicare compliance, utilization management, and interdisciplinary care coordination, with recognized strengths in documentation accuracy and compassionate patient advocacy.

In clinical roles I have performed OASIS assessments, advanced wound care including negative pressure therapy, medication administration, IV therapy, and chronic disease management, while also conducting extensive chart reviews, prior authorizations, and payer criteria alignment.

I am highly organized, process-driven, and skilled at remote communication, risk stratification, rehospitalization prevention, and coordinating transitions of care to maintain quality while addressing cost-containment.
