KRISZTINA LIGO
@krisztinaligo
I’m an anesthesia medical coding professional turned locum recruiter, bridging healthcare data and talent to advance careers.
What I'm looking for
I’m a global professional with a nursing background and 25 years of experience in consulting and long-lasting relationship building, with a strong focus on healthcare. I bring trust, care, and analytical precision to every interaction—whether I’m translating clinical documentation into accurate codes or connecting professionals to their next role.
Most recently, I’ve worked as an anesthesia medical coder for 5 years, extracting ICD-10CM, CPT, and ASA codes from operativenotes, anesthesia records, and images while following CMS guidelines. I’ve documented anesthesiologists and CRNA’s anesthesia timeline, abstracted data from EpicSystems, handled dataentry error correction, and ensured HIPAA compliance while working with DukeHealth, UNC, and VHAS.
Alongside healthcare expertise, I’ve built revenue through consultative sales and strategic marketing. As a Dermalogica Representative at Ulta, I used personalized, high-end product consultations to address customer concerns and increase treatment and product sales; as a business owner/aesthetician, I used data-driven market research, inventory optimization, and physician partnerships to grow bookings and sales.
In my next step, I’m enthusiastic about leveraging my skills as a Locum Recruiter. I’m motivated by ongoing professional development and by the mission of connecting the world to life-saving behavioral health treatment, using research, networking, and compassionate communication to help people achieve milestone career goals.
