What I'm looking for

I am looking for a role that fosters growth, values teamwork, and allows me to optimize healthcare processes.

I am a results-driven Process Associate with over 2.5 years of experience in Revenue Cycle Management (RCM), focusing on medical prior and retrospective authorizations, insurance verification, claims processing, and denial resolution. My proficiency in OncoEMR, PMS, and Centricity, combined with my strong expertise in data analytics and process improvement, has allowed me to streamline workflows and enhance authorization accuracy significantly.

At Ifedora Healthcare, I spearheaded authorization processes for high-priority cases, managing over 100 authorization requests daily with a 99% accuracy rate. I have successfully trained and mentored new team members, optimizing daily performance reports and reducing turnaround times by 30%. My commitment to improving operational efficiency and reducing denial rates has been a driving force in my career, and I am passionate about optimizing RCM operations to drive cost savings and revenue growth.
