What You Will Actually Do
Benefits & Reimbursement

Track and chase EOBs from BCBS families

Distinguish clearly between coded claims and self-pay receipts, and understand why the distinction matters legally and financially

Navigate in-network billing for three additional insurances, two of which routinely require issue-sorting and investigation

Claims & Revenue Cycle

Review charges for accuracy and completeness before submission; catch coding, modifier, unit, and eligibility errors upstream rather than after denial

Submit, scrub, and track claims through to payment

Post ERAs and reconcile payments; identify underpayments against expected reimbursement rather than simply posting what arrived

Build and pursue appeals, first level and beyond, with supporting documentation

Accounts & Families

Manage patient balances, payment plans, and collections communication with professionalism and empathy, these are families with children in therapy, tone matters

Resolve disputes and discrepancies independently, escalating only what genuinely requires the Revenue Cycle Manager or owner

Maintain documentation of every payer conversation: date, representative, reference number, outcome

Work with the on-site admin team to ensure account issues are resolved when patients arrive for appointments, and provide education to staff and families as needed

Software Used

Practice Pro

ClaimMD

Availity

IntakeQ

Microsoft Office 365

Zoom (phone, chat, video)

Requirements
Required Experience — Non-Negotiable

Minimum 3 years of US medical billing experience, with at least 1 year of substantive out-of-network work. Candidates whose experience is exclusively in-network claim submission will not be a fit

Demonstrated ability to manage a caseload of 200+ active patients with recurring visit schedules

Working command of eligibility portals and clearinghouses (Availity, ClaimMD, or equivalent), and EMR/practice management systems

Fluent, professional written and spoken English, you will speak directly with US payers and US families by phone

Comfortable working US Eastern business hours

Strong Excel/Google Sheets skills, able to build a reconciliation or aging report, not just read one

Strongly Preferred

Pediatric therapy billing (OT, PT, SLP), therapy CPT ranges, timed vs. untimed codes, the 8-minute rule, treatment vs. evaluation codes

Experience with authorization-driven care and unit tracking

Managed care organization (MCO) and Medicaid-secondary experience

Prior experience in a small practice where you were the one who figured it out

The Kind of Person This Works For

Independent. You research the answer before you ask. You bring recommendations, not open questions

Persistent. You will call a payer three times about the same claim and stay pleasant on the third call

Organized under load. Dozens of moving accounts, none of which can be dropped

Direct. You tell us when something is wrong or when you are behind, early

Discreet. Full HIPAA compliance is assumed, not celebrated

Benefits

Competitive salary commensurate with experience.

Opportunities for professional development and growth.

Work in a dynamic and supportive team environment.

Make a meaningful impact by helping to build and strengthen families across the globe.
