Revenue Cycle Management (RCM) Specialist | A/R Recovery & Denial Reso
Are you losing thousands of dollars every month to preventable claim denials, clearinghouse rejections, or slow A/R follow-up? Most US practice owners and clinic managers assume their billing runs smoothly until they look at their 90-day A/R aging report. If your cash flow is delayed, it is almost always a workflow problem, not a clinical one. That is where I come in. I am an experienced Revenue Cycle Management (RCM) Specialist with 8+ years of hands-on experience optimizing the billing engine for US healthcare practices (ranging from solo clinics to multi-specialty groups). My core focus is structural billing discipline: ✔ Standardized front-desk intake protocols (eliminating CO-27 coverage denials at the source). ✔ 100% CPT-to-authorization matching (preventing CO-197 non-certified service rejections). ✔ Rigorous Same-Day Denial Resolution SOPs (appealing rejections within 24 hours of EOB/ERA posting). ✔ Systematic A/R recovery (routinely dropping 90+ day aging buckets by over 50%). EHR & PM Platforms I Master: • CureMD (Certified Workflow Expert) • eClinicalWorks (eCW) • CollaborateMD • Clearinghouses: Availity, Change Healthcare, Navinet My track record for client practices: • Average Days in A/R: Under 28 days • First-Pass Clean Claim Acceptance Rate: 94% – 98% • 90+ Day A/R Level: Maintained consistently below 10% Whether you need a full clean-up of legacy aging A/R, a smooth transition to a new EHR/PM system, or a day-to-day specialist to ensure clean claim submissions, I can help you establish a clean billing pipeline.
