Review patient charts and documents for verification and accuracy.
Clarify any unclear information for other staff members.
Participate in projects and meetings as required and complete other tasks assigned by management.

Certification as a CPC is highly desirable but not required.
Knowledge of legal, regulatory, and policy compliance issues in medical coding/billing and documentation.
