  • Reconcile accounts receivable and maintain organized records of billing activity, payments, and correspondence
  • Support and guide other billing team members in handling complex or unusual billing situations
  • Stay current with insurance and HIPAA regulations, sharing updates to ensure team compliance
  • Collaborate with therapists, administrative staff, and leadership to streamline billing processes and improve efficiency

Qualifications

  • 5+ years of hands-on experience in medical billing, preferably in a therapy or healthcare setting
  • Strong understanding of insurance verification, coding, pre-authorizations, claim submission, and appeals
  • High attention to detail with strong communication and customer service skills
  • Ability to manage sensitive information with professionalism and discretion
  • Problem-solver who takes initiative and works well both independently and collaboratively
  • Preferred: Associate degree or certification in medical billing and coding

What Our Client Offers

  • Competitive pay and benefits package
  • Medical, dental, and vision insurance (with HSA option)
  • Company-paid life insurance and short-term disability
  • 401(k) with employer match
  • Generous paid time off and holidays
  • Ongoing professional development and advancement opportunities
  • A collaborative culture that values integrity, accuracy, and impact
