Description:
As a medical coder on our team, you’ll play a vital role ensuring our claims process runs smoothly and efficiently for our customers. Attention to detail is invaluable as you review and enter medical billing information, ensure billing codes correspond with and support medical records, and apply applicable fee schedules and coding rules while making appropriate adjustments. The ideal candidate will have strong customer service and interpersonal skills – which you’ll rely on while assisting medical representatives with coding questions and answering calls from customers, providers, billing offices and attorneys.
This is a hybrid role, which means you’ll work in-office two days that are selected by local leadership and choose where you want to work the other three days, whether that’s at home or in the office, for a training period of about 12 weeks. After training, you’ll be expected to report to an office about four days per month for important meetings, training, and collaboration. In this hybrid work environment, you’ll be supported by your leaders and tenured colleagues to develop relationships, establish connections, and share practices that are important to your development. If you prefer an in-office environment, you’re welcome to work in the office more than four days per month. Position is located in Sterling Hts, or Plymouth Michigan. Candidates must reside within 50 miles of either of these office locations.
