What I'm looking for

I am looking for a role that offers growth opportunities in medical coding and healthcare analytics.

I am a detail-oriented medical coder specializing in HCC coding, with six months of hands-on experience at Alkapzant India Pvt Ltd in Chennai. My role involved accurately assigning ICD-10 codes to capture patient risk profiles, ensuring compliance with CMS guidelines, and maintaining a 95% coding accuracy rate. I collaborated closely with healthcare professionals to clarify documentation, which significantly contributed to accurate risk scoring and reimbursement.

My educational background in Biomedical Engineering has equipped me with a strong understanding of medical terminology, anatomy, and physiology. I am proficient in various coding systems, including ICD-10-CM/PCS and CPT, and I am familiar with healthcare billing processes. I continuously stay updated on changes in coding guidelines to enhance my coding efficiency and accuracy.
