I managed the accounts receivable and billed for mental and behavioral health services provided. I supervised between 5 and 8 people and balanced accounts as funds were received. I provided reviews to the executive team that showed the financial impact from programs, daily client numbers and hourly employee comparisons vs. financial break even points and maintained a continuous review of the company’s financial standing. I verified client insurance information and negotiated single case agreements between Trillum and various entities for client services.

I monitored patient accounts and billed insurance companies and state agencies for monthly recurring medical services relating to nursing home care and therapeutic services. I appealed adverse decisions and balanced patient accounts as funds were received. I directly supervised 3 employees and ensured time sensitive issues were dealt with effectively and accurately.

I performed corporate training of new and current employees and maintained and updated training materials. I successfully completed complex, detail-oriented work while adhering to assigned time requirements. I dealt extensively with private medical information of insured individuals and trained new employees to maintain that same high level of professionalism. I was a trusted team member and designed viable training materials while successfully training quality service standards and skills to Customer Service Representatives at all skill levels. I helped to design and implement a call-monitoring program to ensure quality customer service and maintained contact with outside vendors regarding high dollar claims reviews and price negotiations while monitoring accrued actual savings and providing reports to management regarding these high cost issues.
