  • Serve as a subject matter expert on risk adjustment coding methodologies and diagnosis coding requirements.
  • Support audit production goals and deliver work within established timelines and quality standards.
  • Participate in special projects, including risk mitigation initiatives, targeted reviews, and compliance-related activities.
  • Collaborate with cross-functional teams to improve documentation quality and coding performance.

  • 7+ years of professional experience in healthcare coding, auditing, risk adjustment, or a related field.
  • 5+ years of HCC coding experience utilizing both inpatient and outpatient coding guidelines.
  • 5+ years of experience auditing risk adjustment medical records.
  • 1+ year of experience working in a production-driven environment with established performance metrics.
  • Active Certified Risk Adjustment Coder (CRC) certification in good standing, or ability to obtain certification within six months of hire.
  • Working knowledge of Medicare, Medicaid, and Commercial/ACA risk adjustment models.
  • Strong understanding of CMS HCC methodologies, diagnosis coding standards, and medical record documentation requirements.
  • Demonstrated ability to interpret and apply coding policies, regulations, and industry guidance.
  • Experience providing written and verbal education, feedback, and guidance related to coding accuracy and quality improvement.
  • Intermediate proficiency with Microsoft Office applications, including Excel, Word, PowerPoint, and Outlook.
  • Strong organizational, analytical, and critical-thinking skills with the ability to manage multiple priorities in a deadline-driven environment.
Preferred
  • Bachelor's degree in Health Information Management, Healthcare Administration, Nursing, or a related field.
  • HEDIS and/or Medicare Stars experience.
  • Provider education or provider-facing training experience.
  • Risk Adjustment Data Validation (RADV) audit experience.
