About The Company
Our client is a growing specialty medical practice focused on rheumatology, infusion therapy, and regenerative medicine. As the practice continues to grow, we are strengthening our billing and reimbursement operations to improve collections, reduce denials, and maintain accurate financial visibility across increasingly complex specialty and infusion workflows.
Role Overview
This is an urgent hiring need. We are specifically looking for an experienced Medical Biller with strong eClinicalWorks experience and direct hands-on experience in infusion or specialty medical billing.
The ideal candidate will have proven expertise across reimbursement tracking, reporting, payment posting, accounts receivable, and denial management, with the ability to independently identify, investigate, and resolve billing and reimbursement issues.
This is not an entry-level role. The successful candidate will own core billing workflows, maintain accurate reporting, proactively address denials and payment discrepancies, and strengthen billing operations as the practice continues to scale.

- Proactively follow up on unpaid, partially paid, underpaid, and denied claims.
- Investigate denial root causes and resolve issues related to coding, modifiers, authorization, and place of service.
- Prepare and submit appeals with appropriate supporting documentation.
- Maintain low avoidable denial rates and ensure claims over 30 days receive timely, documented follow-up.
Payment Posting & Reconciliation
- Accurately post EFT payments and paper checks without backlog.
- Reconcile deposits against clearinghouse reports, bank activity, EOBs, and internal payment records.
- Apply contractual adjustments accurately based on payer fee schedules.
- Identify and resolve discrepancies between EOBs, claims, ledgers, and distributor invoices.

Infusion & Biologics Billing

- Maintain and expand infusion reimbursement tracking, comparing expected reimbursement against actual payments.
- Investigate missing, delayed, partial, and underpaid infusion reimbursements.
- Track copay assistance programs and manufacturer payments.
- Audit GPO and distributor invoices for pricing and quantity accuracy.

- Maintain recurring reports covering AR, denials, reimbursements, collections, payment posting, and unresolved payer issues.
- Provide leadership with concise reporting on trends, discrepancies, risk areas, and recommended actions.
- Maintain detailed reimbursement issue logs and supporting documentation.
- Identify patterns in denials, underpayments, and reimbursement discrepancies and proactively escalate concerns.
- Support ProKure-related billing, payment, reimbursement, and reporting workflows as implementation expands.

About The Ideal Candidate
The ideal candidate is an experienced medical billing professional who understands that successful billing goes beyond simply submitting claims.
You are comfortable reviewing an EOB, identifying why a claim was denied or underpaid, tracing the issue across multiple systems, documenting the variance, and following it through to resolution.

The Medical Biller will help ensure claims are submitted accurately, payments are posted correctly, denials are resolved quickly, and infusion reimbursement is tracked from expected payment through collection.
