What I'm looking for

I seek a role that fosters growth in claims operations and medical coding, within a supportive team environment that values compliance and operational excellence.

I am a dedicated healthcare professional with a strong foundation in claims operations and medical coding. My journey began with a Medical Coding and Billing Certificate Program through the U.S. Career Institute, and I am currently pursuing my CPC national certification with AAPC. My experience in handling complex medical cases has equipped me with the skills to navigate challenging scenarios with precision, ensuring accuracy and compliance with industry standards.

In my role as a Health Care Navigator at The Cigna Group, I guide members through intricate healthcare systems, providing personalized support and care coordination tailored to their individual needs. I collaborate with internal teams to remove barriers to care and expedite access to services, all while maintaining detailed records to ensure data integrity and compliance with HIPAA standards. My previous roles have further honed my ability to resolve complex issues related to claims and benefits, and I am committed to contributing to streamlined claims processing and operational excellence.
