We're hiring experienced coders who bring accuracy to this hospital-based facility coding setting. Role Overview This role sits within our Hospital Outpatient Department (HOPD) coding team, supporting hospital-owned outpatient clinics. It is a facility coding role — not a professional fee (pro-fee) coding role. You'll code outpatient clinic encounters under the hospital's facility structure, assign facility E/M levels using HCPCS G0463, and resolve coding denials on those claims in ClaimSource, working from root-cause identification through correction and resubmission. Key Responsibilities Coding Assign ICD-10-CM, CPT, HCPCS Level II, and modifiers for outpatient clinic (HOPD) encounters. Level facility visits using HCPCS G0463, based on documentation. Code outpatient surgeries/procedures, radiology & imaging, lab & pathology, and infusion services performed in the hospital-based clinic setting. Assign revenue codes and support APC grouping for facility claims. Apply NCCI/CCI edits and modifiers correctly within the facility coding structure. Coding Denial Management Review coding denials in ClaimSource and identify the root cause.
Cross-check claim details in Cerner, 3M, and STAR to validate facility documentation. Correct coding and resubmit denied claims; escalate billing-scope issues to the billing team. Support hold-case review in 3M, resolving or escalating pending documentation issues before billing. Track denial trends and flag fixes to prevent repeat denials. Run coding quality checks/audits to keep facility coding accuracy high. Must-Have Expertise Facility E/M coding using HCPCS G0463, within a hospital outpatient clinic (HOPD) setting. APC logic, revenue codes, and OCE edit resolution. Coding denial investigation, correction, and resubmission via ClaimSource. Outpatient facility coding: surgeries & procedures, radiology/imaging (CPT 70010–79999), lab & pathology (CPT 80047–89398), infusion services (CPT 96360–96379), and clinic specialties such as Cardiology, PT/OT, and Wound Care. Common modifiers: -24, -25, -27, -57, -59, -73, -74, G0. Hands-on experience with 3M, Cerner, ClaimSource, and STAR. Comfortable working in a hospital-based (HOPD) facility coding environment. Qualifications CPC, CCS, or equivalent coding certification. 3 years of outpatient facility (HOPD) coding experience. 2 years resolving coding denials in an outpatient facility setting. Working knowledge of 3M, Cerner, ClaimSource, and STAR. Prior experience coding for a hospital-owned outpatient clinic preferred, over independent physician office (pro-fee) coding.
