Summary

As a Nurse Appeal Consultant, I consistently achieve high performance ratings, earning a score of 4 for the 2023 end-of-year evaluation. My track record demonstrates an ability to not only meet but exceed goals and expectations. I possess a strong proficiency in reviewing both pre-service and post-service appeals, utilizing various resources such as MCG, Clinical Policy Bulletins, pharmacy guidelines, eviCore imaging criteria, and plan documents. In addition to core responsibilities, I actively seek opportunities to contribute more by volunteering for extra responsibilities, including expedited triage, providing assistance and guidance to new team members, and participating in special projects aimed at improving inventory management. Additionally, I was recently awarded the June 2024 ACS Celebrate Excellence Award.
