Job description
Description
Billing & Coding Specialist - part-time
Faith Hospice is seeking a part-time, detail-oriented Billing & Coding Specialist with experience in medical coding as well as current certification to join our team of professionals. This role is essential to ensuring accurate clinical documentation, compliant billing practices, and timely reimbursement.
What will you do:
Review clinical documentation for palliative care services and assign accurate ICD-10, CPT, and HCPCS codes.
Ensure compliance with all federal, state, and payer-specific coding guidelines.
Collaborate with providers, nurses, and administrative staff to clarify documentations and resolve coding discrepancies.
Maintain up-to-date knowledge of coding rules, including but not limited to time-based and medical decision making-basted billing.
Conduct internal audits of coded encounters to support quality assurance initiatives.
Assist with claim billing, denials, appeals, and payer inquiries to correct denied claims.
Protect confidentiality and adhere to all HIPAA regulations.
Work can be remote with the ability to come into the Faith Hospice Corporate Office in Byron Center, Michigan when needed.
Qualified candidates: Certified Professional Coder (CPC), Certified Coding Specialist (CCS), or equivalent coding certification.
Must have the ability to verify and/or assign CPT codes for physician services, recognize when an incorrect code is being used, and determine whether the code is supported by the clinical documentation.
The ideal candidate should be able to look at a palliative care provider note and independently determine: What services did the provider actually perform, what does the documentation support, what CPT/ICD-10 code should be reported, and are there any payer, modifier, bundling, or documentation issues that could prevent appropriate reimbursement?
1-3 years of medical coding experience, preferably in palliative care, hospice, geriatrics, or internal medicine is preferred.
Experience with Evaluation and Management (E/M) coding
Knowledge of palliative care documentation standards (e.g., symptom management, goals-of-care discussions, advance care planning) is preferred.
Experience working with EHR systems and coding/billing software is preferred.
Strong understanding of Medicare and commercial payer regulations for palliative care.
