• Resolve claims. Review, research, and resolve outstanding, denied, rejected, and underpaid dental insurance claims across multiple practice locations.
• Clear suspended credits. Investigate suspended credits and payments that have not been properly attached to a patient account or claim, tracing insurance remittance information back to the correct patient encounter.
• Reconcile payments. Compare insurance EOBs and ERAs against payments posted in the practice management system to identify and correct discrepancies.
• Identify unattached procedures. Review completed procedures that were not attached to or billed on an insurance claim and take the necessary steps to ensure billable services are properly submitted.

• Work with insurance carriers. Contact Delta Dental, Medicaid, Medicaid Managed Care plans, commercial dental payers, and other insurance carriers through phone, payer portals, and clearinghouse tools such as DentalXchange.
• Monitor accounts receivable. Review AR aging reports and prioritize follow-up on high-dollar and aged claims to minimize outstanding balances and potential write-offs.
• Support eligibility verification. Verify patient eligibility, insurance coverage, and benefit information as needed to support claim resolution and prevent recurring issues.
• Identify trends. Monitor denial and rejection patterns across payers and locations and communicate opportunities to improve front-end processes, coding, or documentation.
• Collaborate with practices. Partner with front-office and clinical teams to resolve coding, documentation, data‑entry, or scheduling issues that may be delaying claim payment.
• Maintain documentation. Keep thorough and accurate notes on claim status, research, communication, and resolution steps within the practice management system.

• Working knowledge of dental insurance claim processes, EOB/ERA interpretation, and CDT procedure codes.
• Experience with dental or medical practice management software and insurance clearinghouses.
• Strong Microsoft Excel skills, including the ability to work with pivot tables and reconcile data from multiple sources.
• Excellent attention to detail and strong analytical and problem‑solving skills.
• Ability to trace discrepancies back to their root cause across multiple documents and systems.
• Strong written and verbal communication skills.
