What I'm looking for

I’m looking to lead revenue cycle/AR teams where I can reduce aging AR through denial trend analysis, coach high-performing staff, and partner with clients and payers to maximize reimbursement—while staying fully HIPAA-compliant.

I’m a results-driven Accounts Receivable and Revenue Cycle Manager with 10+ years of healthcare revenue cycle experience. I focus on patient account resolution, insurance follow-up, denials management, and revenue recovery—working to maximize reimbursement while keeping processes compliant.

In my current role as an AR Manager for the Patient Escalation Team, I lead a high-priority workflow that resolves complex billing, insurance, and patient account issues. I review accounts involving claim rejections, credentialing issues, and payer disputes, and I coach team members while monitoring productivity, quality, and service levels.

I bring a strong improvement mindset: I identify denial trends, recommend workflow improvements to reduce aging AR, and determine appropriate resolutions including appeals, rebilling, adjustments, and write-offs. I also ensure compliance with client expectations, payer requirements, and HIPAA regulations, while partnering with provider offices and insurance carriers to close reimbursement gaps.

Earlier roles strengthened my end-to-end foundation across patient financial services and accounts receivable/compliance. I’ve handled payment posting, underpayments/overpayments, refunds, eligibility and benefits verification, authorizations, and insurance aging reports—supported by knowledge of medical billing and coding (ICD-10, CPT, CMS-1500, UB-04) and systems including NextGen, Net Practice, and EHR tools.
