I worked for just over a year at Air Medical Resource Group as a Revenue Cycle Specialist, now called Guardian Flight, LLC. My duties included, but not limited to the following:
​
-
Reviewing and abstracting the narratives for the emergent air transports they provided.
-
Assigning ICD-10-CM diagnosis codes, using the proper coding guidelines.
-
Meeting monthly deadlines for completing all flights for each month.
-
Entering patient demographics and insurance information.
-
Verifying insurance, and sending out retro-authorizations if needed.
-
Communicating with the flight crews if there are problems with the documentation.
-
Training new employees
-
Helping audit and review Medicare and Medicaid claims to make sure they are accurate before billing out.
-
Educating myself about medical conditions so that I can properly code to the higher level of specificity.
-
Anything else that my supervisor needed done, I was happy to help with whatever was asked of me.

I was very sorry to leave this position, as it was a good fit for me and I really enjoyed the work. I had to leave due to my husband accepting a job offer in Virginia.
