Workflow Analysis and Design: Evaluate current-state professional and hospital billing claims workflows, including charge review, claim edits, claim submission, denial management, and follow-up processes. Identify root causes of denials, compliance risks, and operational inefficiencies. Design future-state workflows aligned with Epic best practices and organizational policies.

System Configuration and Build: Advise IT and application teams on best practices for configuring HB Claims modules, including claim edits, workqueues, routing rules, scrubbers, remittance processing, and denial workflows.

Stakeholder Collaboration: Partner closely with billing operations, coding, CDI, compliance, managed care, and IT teams. Serve as a liaison between operational and technical stakeholders by translating business needs into effective Epic system solutions.

Optimization and Reporting: Develop and/or monitor key performance indicators (KPIs). Recommend ongoing improvements and system tweaks. Build and/or guide patient experience reporting efforts using Clarity, Caboodle, Reporting Workbench, etc.

Testing and Validation: Guide and support testing efforts (unit, integrated, user acceptance testing, etc.). Validate new features and configurations through structured testing plans.

In-depth understanding of end-to-end revenue cycle processes, including charge capture, coding, claim edits, claim submission, denial management, and A/R follow-up.

Strong knowledge of payer rules, CMS guidelines, and regulatory requirements impacting claims and reimbursement.

Demonstrated success improving KPIs such as clean claim rate, denial rate, and A/R performance.
