Insurance A/R Coordinator

Qualified applicants must have a minimum of two years of experience in medical billing, with a primary focus on physician services. Experience working with multiple provider specialties is strongly preferred.

The ideal candidate will possess a dedicated work ethic, strong problem-solving skills, a commitment to meeting and exceeding the company’s high standards of quality, and an overall positive attitude. The ability to independently troubleshoot and research complex issues is necessary in order to be successful in this position.

It is essential to follow the constantly changing policies of various insurance payers in order to proactively anticipate operational and workflow-related changes that the billing operation must adhere to in order to avoid unnecessary denials and loss of provider reimbursement. Strong attention to detail and diligence in following through on complicated and/or time-consuming items is critical.

Coordination and timely communication with management and fellow team members regarding new trends and issues is essential. We operate in small teams, so the ability to work well with others is absolutely necessary.
