What I'm looking for

I seek a stable billing or credit-control role in healthcare where I can apply precise reconciliation, improve collections, and work within a compliant, team-oriented culture.

I am a dedicated billing and credit control professional with decades of hands-on experience in hospital and clinic financial administration, debtor management, and patient account reconciliation. I have managed high-volume ledgers, processed complex medical aid and international accounts, and ensured billing meets ISO 9001 standards.

I bring meticulous attention to detail, strong MS Office and clinic system proficiency (IMEDS, Clinic Manager, SAM), and a proven track record of improving collections, reconciling multi-million rand ledgers, and supporting efficient ward and admissions administration. I am immediately available and committed to reliable, accurate, and compliant billing operations.
