Compliance and revenue-cycle professional specializing in utilization management, coding accuracy, and claims & appeals under CMS and HIPAA.
What I'm looking for
I’m a healthcare compliance and revenue cycle professional with 7+ years of experience across utilization management, medical necessity review, clinical claims adjudication, denial management, and government-regulated program oversight. I bring a detail-driven approach to protecting member outcomes while ensuring payer and regulatory alignment.
I apply MCG/InterQual criteria and coding standards (ICD-10-CM/PCS, CPT, HCPCS) within CMS, HIPAA, and Medicaid/Medicare frameworks. From prospective, concurrent, and retrospective claim reviews to DRG validation and itemized bill review, I focus on accuracy, appropriate level of care, and defensible clinical documentation.
I’ve led medical review and appeals workflows, including prior authorization appeals and corrective resubmissions for coding and medical necessity issues. I also support grievances, administrative fair hearings, and post-payment audit readiness by tracking defect trends and preparing cases with clear, evidence-based clinical criteria.
Beyond revenue cycle, I’ve supported compliance and regulatory risk management through surveillance reviews, audit-ready documentation, and internal control framework development. I’m currently pursuing the CPC credential through AAPC, and I’m committed to regulatory awareness, ethics, and accountability in every engagement.
