Job description

About Sprinter Health

At Sprinter Health, our mission is reimagining how people access care by bringing it directly into their homes. Nearly 30% of patients in the U.S. skip preventive or chronic care simply because they can’t get to a doctor’s office. For many, the ER becomes their first touchpoint with the healthcare system—driving over $300B in avoidable costs every year.

By using the same technologies that power leading marketplace and last-mile platforms, we deliver care where people are, especially those who need it most. So far, we’ve supported more than 2 million patients across 22 states, completed over 130,000 in-home visits, and maintained a 92 NPS. Our team of clinicians, technologists, and operators have raised over $125M to date from investors like a16z, General Catalyst, GV, and Accel and enjoy multi-year runway.

About the Role

As a Medical Coder, you will be responsible for reviewing and abstracting professional medical records to ensure accurate code assignment. You'll play a a critical role in maintaining our coding quality, compliance, and productivity standards.

• Review and abstract professional medical records, including provider notes, encounters, and supporting documentation.
• Assign ICD-10-CM, CPT, HCPCS, and applicable modifiers accurately, following national and payer-specific coding guidelines.
• Validate that all codes are supported by provider documentation; query providers for clarification when necessary.
• Maintain coding quality metrics (accuracy, productivity, and compliance) as defined by leadership.
• Participate in internal and external coding audits; provide feedback to improve documentation and coding processes.
• Stay current with updates to CPT, ICD-10, HCPCS, and CMS risk adjustment guidelines.
• Maintain confidentiality and adhere to all HIPAA and compliance standards.

You’ll Love this Job If:

• You take pride in accuracy and integrity, finding satisfaction in getting every detail right.
• You’re motivated by mission as much as metrics — knowing your work directly supports better access to preventive and chronic care for patients nationwide.
• You thrive in a tech-forward, fast-growing environment where innovation and continuous improvement are part of the daily rhythm.
• You enjoy working independently in a remote setting while staying connected to a collaborative, purpose-driven team.
• You see coding as more than data entry — it’s a way to translate complex clinical stories into meaningful information that drives quality care.
• You’re naturally curious, proactive, and eager to stay current on coding updates, contribute feedback, and shape evolving processes.
• Most of all, you value flexibility, accountability, and being part of a company that’s reimagining how healthcare reaches people where they are.

What We’re Looking For

• Certification: Active AAPC (e.g., CPC, COC) or AHIMA (CCS-P, CCS) certification.
• Experience: Minimum 3 years of Pro-Fee coding experience.
• Strong understanding of HCC / risk adjustment coding principles.
• Excellent command of medical terminology, anatomy, physiology, pathophysiology, disease progression, and pharmacology.
• Deep familiarity with CPT, ICD-10-CM, HCPCS, and modifier assignment.
• Ability to work independently and maintain productivity in a remote setting.
• Strong communication and problem-solving skills.
• Proficient in EHR systems, encoder/coding software, and Google tools.
• Reliable internet connection and dedicated, secure workspace.
• Review and abstract professional medical records, including provider notes, encounters, and supporting documentation.
