This role requires at least two years of hands-on coding experience in multiple surgical specialties, including but not limited to orthopedics, general surgery, cardiology, neurosurgery, and gastroenterology.

• Work collaboratively with surgeons, clinical staff, and billing teams to resolve documentation and coding issues
• Review operative reports to ensure precise coding and optimize reimbursement while maintaining compliance
• Research and stay current with evolving coding guidelines, NCCI edits, payer policies, and regulatory changes
• Assist with denials management, audits, and appeals to ensure maximum reimbursement and compliance
• Maintain confidentiality and adhere to HIPAA and healthcare compliance regulations

Multi-Specialty Surgical Coder Requirements:

• Minimum 2 years of hands-on experience in surgical coding across multiple specialties (Certification alone does NOT qualify)
• High school diploma or equivalent required; Associate’s or Bachelor’s degree in Health Information Management, Medical Coding, or a related field preferred
• Certifications: CPC or CCS
• Proficiency in EHR/EMR systems, coding software, and Microsoft Office Suite
• Strong analytical skills, keen attention to detail, and the ability to work independently in a fast-paced environment

If you meet these qualifications, we invite you to apply today!
