What I'm looking for

I seek a role where I apply preauthorization and insurance coordination skills within a collaborative healthcare team, with opportunities for process improvement and professional growth.

I am an Approval Specialist with hands-on experience in preauthorization processing, denial management, and medical insurance coordination, backed by an MSc in Biotechnology and laboratory experience. I have a strong medical background from roles in clinical labs and academic teaching where I ensured quality control, regulatory compliance, and accurate documentation.

I excel at submitting accurate approval requests, reviewing medical necessity, following up on pending approvals, and communicating outcomes to internal teams. I combine technical lab skills and bioinformatics training with clear communication and process-driven insurance workflow support to reduce denials and improve claims outcomes.
