Experienced medical billing and coding specialist with leadership skills.
What I'm looking for
With over 7 years of experience in medical billing and coding, I have honed my skills in various healthcare settings, including multi-specialty clinics and outpatient facilities. My expertise encompasses coding for health encounters, E&M coding, and a deep understanding of medical terminology and human anatomy. I am well-versed in the complex federal regulations from the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS), ensuring compliance and accuracy in all processes.
In my recent role as a Subject Matter Expert and Team Lead at BroadPath Healthcare Solutions, I successfully managed and developed a team of ten, focusing on enhancing performance and resolving issues proactively. My experience as a Medicaid Claims Analyst further solidified my ability to review claims for accuracy, evaluate coverage, and identify potential fraud. I am dedicated to improving outcomes and ensuring that all claims are processed efficiently and accurately.
