  • Identify opportunities for corrected claims or appeals when appropriate.

  • Review adjustments, discounts, write-offs, refunds, and account credits for accuracy.
  • Verify patient and insurance balances.
  • Audit payment posting and allocation.
  • Review accounts receivable for unusual or unresolved balances.
  • Identify revenue leakage and report findings to management.
Compliance & Quality Control

  • Help ensure billing and documentation practices comply with applicable regulations, payer requirements, and office policies.
  • Identify patterns of coding, documentation, or billing errors.

  • Review outstanding and denied insurance claims.
  • Track missing documentation and follow up until corrected.
  • Maintain an Audit Correction Log documenting errors, responsible department, correction status, and completion date.
  • Provide management with a weekly summary of findings, including recurring problems and financial impact.
Qualifications

  • Minimum 2 years of dental insurance, billing, treatment coordination, or auditing experience preferred.
  • Strong knowledge of dental terminology and CDT coding.
  • Understanding of PPO, Medicare/Medicare Advantage, and other dental insurance plans.
  • Experience with dental practice-management software; Dentrix experience strongly preferred.

  • Accurate procedure and payment posting.
  • Timely identification and correction of billing errors.
  • Improved collection of outstanding insurance balances.
  • Identification and recovery of missed revenue.
  • Completion of assigned audits and correction follow-ups.
  • Clear reporting of recurring problems to management.
Accountability

The Dental Auditor is expected to identify problems—not simply document them. Each discrepancy should be tracked through correction and resolution whenever possible. Significant compliance concerns, repeated employee errors, unusual adjustments, or potential revenue loss should be immediately reported to management.
