Key Responsibilities
Operational Leadership
Dual-Channel Billing Ownership: Direct billing operations across Medical Benefit (J-Codes, HCPCS, CPT,
CMS-1500, UB-04) and Pharmacy Benefit (NCPDP) channels, ensuring coordinated revenue capture for
therapies billable under either benefit.
Team Leadership: Lead, mentor, and develop the professional billing staff across specialty pharmacy and
infusion lines. Establish clear performance standards, training plans, and career pathways.
Workflow Discipline: Audit and refine billing workflows to remove rework, reduce touch points, and
shorten the cycle from service date to clean claim submission. Implement automation where appropriate
for claim edits, eligibility verification, and secondary claim routing.
Cash Posting Oversight: Oversee pharmacy and professional medical cash posting operations, ensuring
accurate, timely, and fully reconciled posting of payments, adjustments, and remittances across both
benefit channels. Maintain controls that support clean AR aging, accurate reporting, and audit readiness.
Reimbursement Integrity
Coding Accuracy and Modifier Review: Conduct structured reviews of code selection, modifier application
(including JW, JZ, and infusion-specific modifiers), units billed, and place-of-service designations to ensure
each claim accurately reflects the service provided and the payers coverage policy.
Pre-Submission Validation: Establish formal pre-billing audit and validation protocols, including small-
volume claim validation cycles to confirm payer acceptance of new codes, modifiers, or product NDCs
before broad submission. All validation activity is documented, evidence-based, and grounded in published
payer policy and contract terms.

Ancillary Service Capture: Ensure all billable components of complex therapies including nursing
administration, supplies, clinical monitoring, and pharmacist clinical services are documented and
submitted in accordance with payer policy and AmeriPharma contracts.
Denial Root Cause Management: Treat every denial as an actionable data point. Lead structured root-
cause analysis, drive upstream corrections in intake and clinical documentation, and reduce avoidable
denial volume cycle over cycle.

Payer and Contract Alignment
Commercial Plan Expertise: Apply current working knowledge of national and regional commercial payer
policy (Aetna, BCBS plans, UnitedHealthcare, Cigna, Humana, and others) to navigate prior authorization
requirements, site-of-care policy, white-bagging and brown-bagging dynamics, and benefit determination
rules.
Contract-Aware Billing: Partner with Contracting to ensure billing practices reflect current network rates
and terms, including specialty wrap networks such as First Health, and to surface contract gaps or
interpretation issues that affect realized reimbursement.
Government Program Compliance: Ensure Medicare Part B, Medicare Part D, Medicaid (FFS and MCO), and
dual-eligible billing follows current CMS and state-specific guidance.

Compliance and Audit Readiness
Regulatory Posture: Ensure billing practices remain fully compliant with OIG, HIPAA, CMS, USP, and state
pharmacy and Medicaid requirements. All optimization activity is documented, defensible, and supported
by published payer policy and contract terms.
Audit Response: Lead internal and external billing audit responses, including payer audits, OIG inquiries,
and Medicaid reviews. Maintain documentation standards that withstand third-party review.

Required Qualifications
Experience: Minimum 810 years of progressive leadership in Specialty Pharmacy or Home Infusion
Revenue Cycle, with demonstrated accountability for $100M or greater in annual collections.
Technical Mastery: Advanced expertise in Medical Benefit billing (CMS-1500 and UB-04) and Pharmacy
Benefit billing (NCPDP), with deep working knowledge of CPT, HCPCS, J-Codes, ICD-10, and modifier
application across infusion, injectable, and specialty drug categories.
Payer Knowledge: Comprehensive understanding of national and regional commercial reimbursement
policy, government payer rules, prior authorization frameworks, and specialty distribution dynamics.
Analytical Capability: Proficiency in data analytics platforms (Power BI, Tableau, Superset, or equivalent) to
monitor performance, identify trends, and substantiate reimbursement decisions.

Education: Bachelors degree in Finance, Healthcare Administration, Business, or related field. Masters
degree or professional certification (CPC, CPB, CRCR, or equivalent) preferred.
