I worked as an inpatient coder for approximately 2 years before moving to a back office role as a Coding Account Resolution Specialist. During this time, I recieved my Certified Coding Specialist certification through AHIMA in 2015. My role is to resolve coding edits that may be causing a claim to deny, or an edit that is making the claim unable to be processed. This involves the review of diagnoses and procedures, and making corrections if needed. This also includes the creation of mock abstracts for overlapping accounts. I work closely with the Revenue Integrity department as well as Billing, Collections, and Appeals for resolution of edits. I am very familiar with Meditech, Meditech Expanse, 3M 360 Solventum, Excel, and HPF.

I performed the inpatient and outpatient coding for this rural access facility. My job duties also included transcription, assembly and analysis, release of information, and a filing of records.

I started as a file clerk, then worked my way into an assembly and analysis position. I was fortunate enough to train on the job as an Inpatient/Outpatient Coder. I performed my coding role for the last 3 years of my employment with thus facility.
