What I'm looking for

I am looking for a role that offers opportunities for growth and challenges in data analysis within the healthcare sector.

I am an AR Claims Associate with over 4.5 years of experience in medical billing, insurance claims processing, denial management, and revenue cycle operations. My proficiency in analyzing claims and resolving disputes has enabled me to ensure timely reimbursements while maximizing revenue and minimizing claim rejections.

Currently, I work as an AR Specialist at Web PT, where I process and analyze medical claims, investigate claim denials, and collaborate with payers and providers. My strong problem-solving and communication skills, combined with my expertise in Epic and Athenahealth, allow me to effectively manage high-volume claims and maintain compliance with HIPAA and Medicare regulations.

Throughout my career, I have been recognized for my performance, receiving the Best Performer of the Year award in 2024. I am passionate about leveraging my skills in data analysis and revenue cycle management to contribute to the success of healthcare organizations.
