Responsibilities

Audit the work

• Audit plan: Run audits against the approved monthly plan, including random samples, targeted samples (high-dollar accounts, complex specialties or remits, new payers and new clients) and 100% audits for new joiners or associates on a performance improvement plan.
• Source checks: Validate each audited item against source documents such as superbills, encounter forms, EMR notes, charge logs, ERAs/EOBs and payer correspondence.
• Coding and charge entry: Verify demographics, insurance, date and place of service, rendering/billing/referring provider, CPT/HCPCS and ICD-10-CM codes and linkage, modifiers, units, charge amounts and authorisation numbers, along with NCCI, MUE and LCD/NCD requirements.

• AR and denials: Confirm that follow-up actions are correct, documented and on time, that denials land in the right work queue, and that appeals meet payer requirements.
• Rejections and exceptions: Review clearinghouse rejections, scrubber edits and auto-post exceptions, and confirm fixes were made correctly and on time.
• Gaps and leakage: Flag missed, duplicate or late charges, suspected underpayments, incorrect write-offs and unreconciled variances.

Find the root cause and fix it

• Error classification: Classify errors using the approved scoring matrix: critical or non-critical, financial or non-financial, process-based or knowledge-based.
• Feedback: Give associates and Team Leads clear, evidence-backed feedback within 24-48 hours, and track that it is acknowledged and closed.
• Root cause analysis: Dig into repeat or high-impact errors, find the root cause, and help build and track corrective actions (CAPA) such as retraining, SOP updates and checklist changes. Then check that the fix worked.

• Reporting: Publish daily, weekly and monthly quality reports and scorecards at associate, team and client level, including RCA reports and trend charts for leadership.
• Escalation: Escalate critical errors right away, especially anything with revenue, compliance or timely filing impact.
• Client support: Prepare quality summaries and action plans for client quality calls, answer client quality questions with data and clear timelines, and submit client scorecards on time.
• Compliance: Follow HIPAA, PHI handling standards, CMS rules and Veradigm information security policies at all times, and support internal and client compliance audits.
• Staying current: Track annual CPT, HCPCS and ICD-10-CM updates and payer policy changes, and flag any needed changes to SOPs and payer rule references.

Help improve the process
