About the Opportunity

• Maintain productivity and quality standards while handling a high volume of cases.
• Collaborate with internal teams to ensure accurate and timely claim resolutions.

Qualifications

• Active CPC or CPC-A certification required.
• Experience working with EOBs (Explanation of Benefits) and appeals processing strongly preferred.
• Healthcare billing, medical coding, claims, or reimbursement experience preferred.
• Understanding of CPT codes and insurance reimbursement methodologies.
• Experience with emergency services, ambulance, or facility/professional billing is helpful but not required.
• Knowledge of the No Surprises Act (NSA) is a plus.
