What I'm looking for

I am looking for a challenging position that allows me to utilize my coding expertise and contribute to healthcare operations.

I am a dedicated Medical Coder with over 5 years of experience in accurately coding and abstracting medical records. My proficiency in ICD-10-CM, CPT, and HCPCS coding systems, combined with my strong attention to detail, allows me to ensure compliance with coding guidelines and reimbursement regulations effectively. I have a proven track record of optimizing revenue and streamlining healthcare operations.

Throughout my career, I have held senior-level positions where I was responsible for reviewing and assigning accurate codes to medical procedures, diagnoses, and services. My experience includes conducting regular audits to maintain compliance and training junior coders on best practices. I have also worked as a Healthcare Business Analyst, where I monitored healthcare initiatives and provided guidance to organizations in achieving regulatory compliance.
