Job Title & LocationRemote Healthcare Billing Specialist (Remote)Location:Remote – flexible hours centered around Keene, New Hampshire We’re adding this role because we’ve just closed a $25 million Series B round and our newest tele‑health platform is rolling out to clinics in the Midwest. The extra billing capacity will let us move from 120 claims a day to 250 claims a day within the next three months, and we need experienced hands to keep the revenue stream clean and compliant. --- ###The Reality ofThis Role When you, you’ll step into a space that’s already humming with activity.Over the past six months our billing department grew from five to fifteen specialists, and we’ve layered on three new software platforms to handle the surge. The real work is making those platforms talk to each other while keeping every claim under the 48‑hour posting window that our providers expect. You’ll sit at the intersection of the clinical staff in Keene and the accounting crew in Keene, New Hampshire, translating physician notes into clean CPT and ICD‑10 codes, chasing denials, and teaching our newest hires the nuances of Medicare‑part B versus private payer rules.The team is flat – you’ll report directly to the Billing Manager, Maya, who started in the trenches as a coder three years ago. We run in a hybrid of async Slack threads and weekly video “stand‑up‑check‑ins,” so you’ll need to be comfortable communicating without the office door to knock on.

We have a hard cut‑off on the 1st of December for the first batch of 2,000 new patient records, and every delayed claim chips away at cash flow.It’s a high‑stakes period, but the payoff is seeing the revenue curve steepen from a 2 % month‑over‑month growth rate to 6 % once the new contracts are live. --- ### What You’ll Actually Do 1.

Partner with the payer liaison team in Keene to negotiate re‑submission windows, shortening the average denial turnaround from 14 days to 7 days. 6. Generate daily KPI dashboards in bolthires Data Studio, pulling data from ClaimConnect, Navicure, and our in‑house Excel tracker, then share them in the #billing‑metrics Slack channel by 9 a.m. CST. 7. Educate providers on proper documentation standards via short 15‑minute Zoom workshops held every Thursday at 3 p.m.Keene time. 8. Run monthly compliance checks to ensure HIPAA and MACRA regulations are met, logging any findings in our Confluence space. 9. Mentor the two newest billing analysts, reviewing their claim logs and offering feedback on code selection. 10. Assist the finance team in reconciling weekly revenue reports, flagging any discrepancies larger than $2,500 before they hit the CFO’s inbox. 11.
