Billing Specialist Resume
A billing specialist may work in an insurance company, hospital, or a doctor's clinic. In the medical sector, he will maintain patients' medical records. Sometimes, he may also record vital signs and submit the details to the doctor for treating the patient. If you are willing to become a medical billing specialist, then attention to detail and accuracy is a must because responsibilities would include handling claims, entering charges, processing billings, and making payment collections.
Most of the medical offices will recruit an individual who can do more than just in charge of medical collections. They seek for someone to be more of a medical assistant as well. Other job duties will include:
- Prepare and maintain patient charts
- Accounts payable, payroll and banking tasks
- Receive and make phone calls
- Schedule appointments
- Perform insurance verification, pre-authorized and referral duties
