ROLE SUMMARY
The RCM Specialist is a skilled billing professional who brings focused expertise to the complex, high-stakes parts of the revenue cycle. Working alongside Client Champions, the Specialist handles deep AR management, denial resolution, charge entry review, and other work that demands specialist-level knowledge and precision. This role doesn't own the client relationship — it owns the craft. Specialists develop sub-specialty depth in specific areas and are deployed by Champions to elevate the quality and consistency of work delivered.

Core Responsibilities

Specialist Execution

• Perform deep AR management — working aged accounts, identifying patterns, and resolving complex claims
• Lead denial resolution — root cause analysis, appeal writing, payer follow-up, and trend identification
• Review and resolve charge entry issues that require coding knowledge or payer-specific expertise
• Handle complex billing issues escalated by Champions or identified through dashboard review

Champion Support & Collaboration

• Work assigned tasks within the direction and prioritization of the Client Champion
• Flag systemic patterns observed during specialist work back to the Champion
• Contribute to building new lanes when recurring issues reveal a process gap
• Support high-touch client periods — new payer onboarding, system transitions, inherited backlogs
• Provide coverage support when a Champion's capacity is at its limit

Knowledge & Documentation

• Maintain and deepen sub-specialty expertise in assigned areas
• Contribute to policy and procedure documentation in areas of specialty
• Participate in Client Champion team meetings to share specialist insights
• Stay current on payer policy changes, coding updates, and denial trends in areas of focus

Minimum Requirements:

• High school diploma
• Two years experience in medical practice billing
• Proficiency in MS Office
• eCW and/or athena experience required (3+ years)

What Success Looks Like

• Client Champions can rely on the Specialist to take complex work off their plate with confidence
• AR buckets and denial queues are worked with depth and consistency
• Patterns are identified and communicated — not just fixed quietly
• New lanes get built when issues repeat, not just patched
• The Specialist's expertise is known across the team and deployed effectively
• Client outcomes improve in areas where the Specialist is engaged
