Judy Cambone

I'm currently supporting Northlake Nephrology through SLR Holdings LLC, where I interpret and format provider documentation for complete discharge summaries while managing provider credentialing, licensing, insurance documentation, renewals, and hospital privileges.

At Covington Behavioral Health Hospital, I've overseen HIM operations since 2017, including medical record collection, retention, analysis, discharge record review, state reporting, audits, and HIM key indicators. I collaborate with physicians to improve documentation quality and present audit findings and quality insights to the Performance Improvement Committee.

My coding work includes assigning ICD and CPT codes, verifying chart completeness and sequencing, researching complex cases, and clarifying documentation with providers.

I'm a Certified Professional Coder who brings hands-on knowledge of HIPAA, CMS standards, ICD-10, CPT, HCPCS, EMR workflows, and provider credentialing. I also lead HIM staff through hiring, training, performance evaluation, and daily communication while supporting legal and compliance documentation needs.
