I am a Certified Professional Medical Coder and Auditor with extensive experience in professional fee coding, coding compliance, payer policy interpretation, and revenue cycle management across multiple physician specialties. I specialize in reviewing clinical documentation to ensure accurate CPT, ICD-10-CM, HCPCS, and modifier assignment while identifying coding opportunities, documentation gaps, compliance risks, and reimbursement issues. My expertise includes medical coding audits, coding validation, payer policy research, NCCI edits, MUEs, modifier application, denial analysis, documentation review, and revenue integrity. I have extensive experience working with Medicare, Medicaid, and commercial payers, applying CMS regulations and payer-specific guidelines to support accurate, compliant reimbursement. Whether reviewing operative reports, clinic documentation, or complex coding scenarios, my approach is always evidence-based, guideline-driven, and focused on delivering clear, defensible coding recommendations that help providers maximize compliant reimbursement while minimizing audit risk.
