About the role

This is a specialized back-office revenue cycle support role focused on maximizing claim reimbursement through accurate insurance discovery, eligibility verification, and secondary payer claim follow-up. This is a non-patient-facing position ideal for candidates who excel at insurance research, portal navigation, payer outreach, and revenue cycle problem-solving using AdvancedMD software.

Key responsibilities

  • Perform proactive insurance discovery to identify active primary and secondary coverage for unbilled or demographic-rejected claims

  • Verify coverage dates, benefit caps, copays, deductibles, and authorization requirements using online payer portals, batch eligibility clearinghouses, and direct line inquiries

  • Update patient billing files and demographics in AdvancedMD to ensure clean claim submission on initial billing runs

  • Manage and process secondary insurance billing following primary adjudication (EOB/ERA review)

  • Contact commercial, Medicare, Medicaid, and supplemental insurance payers via telephone and web portals to resolve outstanding 2nd-party balances

  • Re-file claims with proper primary EOB attachments, coordination of benefits (COB) details, and appropriate billing modifiers

  • Identify and correct billing errors or payer rejections preventing secondary payment

  • Utilize AdvancedMD daily to work assigned aging reports, worklists, and claim hold queues efficiently

  • Document precise, professional accounts receivable notes regarding payer status, claim refilings, and expected resolution timelines

  • Collaborate with internal pathology coding and billing team members to resolve systemic billing blockers

About you

  • At least 1–3 years of US Medical Billing experience, revenue cycle management, or insurance claims processing (pathology or lab billing experience is a strong plus)

  • Minimum 1 year of hands-on experience using AdvancedMD (PM/RCM modules) preferred

  • Strong understanding of COB (Coordination of Benefits), primary vs. secondary payer rules, EOB interpretation, CPT/ICD-10 codes, and clearinghouse rejections

  • Proficiency with major insurance portals (Availity, NaviNet, Medicare/Medicaid portals) and web-based research tools

  • Exceptional attention to detail, strong analytical skills, and efficient phone etiquette when navigating insurance payer call trees

  • Maintain complete compliance with HIPAA rules and regulations, maintaining strict confidentiality over all Protected Health Information (PHI)
