With over 3+ years of experience as a medical billing specialist, I possess a solid foundation in coding and billing practices, along with comprehensive knowledge of insurance policies and procedures. During my tenure, I consistently improved reimbursement rates and reduced accounts receivable for my previous employer. Certified as a Medical Billing and Coding Specialist by the Global Institute, I excel in utilizing electronic health records systems such as Cerner, MEDITECH, eClinicalWorks, NextGen Healthcare, and Practice Fusion. My proficiency extends to various medical billing software including AdvancedMD, Medisoft, DrChrono, Kareo, OfficeAlly, nAbleMD, WRS, ICANotes, Athena Health, Open PM, and Simple Practice. My experience includes successfully setting up new practices, where I played a key role in establishing a new medical practice from inception. Responsibilities included implementing electronic health records systems, training staff on billing procedures, and negotiating provider contracts with insurance companies. The practice thrived under my guidance, launched within the allocated timeframe, and has continued to prosper. I possess a comprehensive understanding of CPT/HCPCS codes and adhere to published health information management coding conventions. My skills include identifying and resolving charging/documentation discrepancies, and I am well-versed in medical terminology, abbreviations, and healthcare systems. Familiar with audit principles and guidelines, I apply accepted practices in healthcare billing, cost accounting, and reimbursement. I am knowledgeable about policies, standards, and methodologies related to charge capture, reconciliation, reporting, documentation, and compliance.
