We’re looking for an experienced Billing Specialist with a strong background in payment posting, charge submission, and insurance A/R. We’re looking for someone who is naturally curious, takes initiative to dig into the root causes of billing issues, and approaches their work with the bigger picture in mind and is focused on driving outcomes, not just completing tasks. In this role, you’ll put your eye for detail, love for process, and commitment to client success into action by working directly with internal teams and client staff to support accurate, timely, and optimized revenue cycles.

WHO YOU ARE

You care deeply about the success of clients, coworkers, and patients. You listen first, and you're open to new ideas and feedback.
