Email: **************@***.***

I am a professional who has delivered consistent superior project results.

I have maintained and assisted clients in determining best practices while

adhering to governmental guidelines. I possess the ability to translate

and configure data into current/ standard terminology, and assign

appropriate codes for inpatient coding within hospital policies. Assisted

in the maintenance of administrative codes such as: (CPT, CPT-II, and ICD-

9/10), clinical terminologies (SNOMED CT, LOINC, RxNorm, etc.), and

medication codes (NDC). Sustaining such codes is necessary in order to

facilitate an ongoing execution of sensitive code review procedures and

sensitive code identification.

AREAS OF EXPERTISE

CONFIGURATION AND CODING SPECIALIST, JULY 2007-PRESENT

While working with Adian Inc., I provided expertise for various contracts

in building crosswalks among standard terminologies. Among the many tasks,

I was responsible for assigning the appropriate ICD-9-CM diagnosis, CPT

codes, and ICD-10 if applicable. Specific experience and expertise was

demonstrated in normalizing, mapping, resolving conflicts, and managing

updates and domain modeling. Monitored the development and instructional

design of training material and programs; reviewed implementation

activities and tasks in accordance with Standard Implementation

Methodology. In addition, assisted with implementation training to provide

hospital personnel with preliminary knowledge and skills required to

utilize EHR systems; including multiple clinical workflows, best practices,

improved system/process performance, and clinical adoption.
