Experienced healthcare billing manager driving operational efficiency and accurate claims resolution.
What I'm looking for
I am an accomplished healthcare billing manager with extensive experience overseeing medical billing, insurance claims, and regulatory compliance. Over a decade at Medenet Analytics and prior leadership at Biovista sharpened my expertise in end-to-end claims processing and patient billing.
I lead teams to optimize workforce scheduling, conduct performance reviews, and sustain high morale while ensuring accurate payment posting, reconciliation, and denial management. I routinely prepare appeals, follow up on unpaid claims, and handle complex cases including worker, auto, and litigation-related claims.
Earlier in my career as a statistician at a national research institute, I applied advanced statistical methods and SPSS to analyze large datasets, identify trends, and support data-driven decision-making. This analytical foundation complements my operational strengths in billing specialties across numerous clinical areas.
I am certified as a CPC (December 2023) and bring strong communication, project management, and compliance-focused leadership. I aim to leverage healthcare analytics and process improvements to increase reimbursement accuracy and enhance patient satisfaction.
