I improve medical coding quality through audits, training, and ICD expertise.
What I'm looking for
I'm currently improving coding quality at SRM Tech through root-cause analysis, ICD guideline updates, and training for trainee coders.
Previously at Optum, I handled final validation checks and internal quality audits. At Episource, I coded and audited risk-adjustment medical records using ICD-10-CM diagnosis coding and HCCs.
As a CPC-certified medical coding professional with close to five years of experience, I bring experience across Medicare, commercial projects, pregnancy coding, and coder mentoring.
