Insurance Collections Specialist

Every Claim Has a Reason It Hasn’t Paid. Find It. At My Psychiatrist, we’re looking for an Insurance Collections Specialist who knows how to work an account beyond the first follow-up. Denials. Underpayments. Missing information. Payer discrepancies. Aging balances. You investigate what stopped reimbursement, determine the next action, and stay with the account until there is a clear resolution. This isn’t simply collections. It’s investigation. Problem-solving. Payer follow-through. Revenue recovery. Because the goal isn’t activity. The goal is resolution. The Role As an Insurance Collections Specialist at My Psychiatrist Headquarters in Hollywood, Florida, you’ll take ownership of assigned insurance accounts receivable and work them strategically toward resolution. You’ll investigate unpaid and underpaid claims, resolve denials, identify reimbursement discrepancies, communicate with insurance carriers, prepare appeals when necessary, and ensure recoverable revenue doesn’t remain sitting in aging.
