Collaborate with physicians, departmental leadership, revenue cycle teams, and billing staff to support coding accuracy and reimbursement optimization
Maintain established departmental productivity and quality standards
Participate in coding audits and quality assurance reviews
Remain current on changes to CPT, ICD-10-CM, CMS, Medicare, Medicaid, and commercial payer requirements
