Role Overview This role sits within our Hospital Outpatient Department (HOPD) coding team, supporting hospital-owned outpatient clinics.

Coding Denial Management - Review coding denials in Claim
Source 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 Claim
