Certified Professional Coder with 8 years of experience in the medical claims industry, I have developed a strong foundation in processing, auditing, and managing medical claims. I began my career as a Medical Claims Processor in a healthcare group, where I quickly gained expertise in medical billing rules and honed my skills in Excel, enabling me to process and audit a high volume of claims efficiently. Within five months, I was entrusted with overseeing the submission process for a few medical clinics, where I successfully reduced the rejection rate under my responsibility.
In addition to my practical experience, I obtained my Certified Professional Coder (CPC) certification from the American Academy of Professional Coders (AAPC), further solidifying my knowledge in coding and billing. Recently, I served as an Authorization Medical Coder and Insurance Coordinator at a Day Care Surgery Center, where I have been for the past two years, leveraging my expertise in both medical coding and insurance coordination to streamline operations and improve claim outcomes.
