HR Manager
CephTech

Decatur, GA 33071


Dear Ms. Heathfield:

Please accept my application and attached resume for the position of medical billing and coding specialist - the position that I heard about on CephTech’s website. With ample experience in medical billing and coding for effective implementation, compliance and support of coding contracts by careful planning and requisite problem solving ability, I can add efficiency to CephTech’s newly established Coral Springs division.    

During my previous job experience (details listed in my  resume) in the similar position, I learned to perform the following tasks which are CephTech’s essentially required for this position: 
·         Reviewing electronic encounter documents to make sure that the codes provided by the practitioners are correct per coding protocols and fulfill all established guidelines
·         Researching coding strategies to support any insurance claim denials based on coding guidelines
·         Assigning applicable codes to the medical records
·         Reviewing insurance claims to find out possible coding errors 


Furthermore, I have thorough knowledge of medical record auditing methodologies as well as coding abstraction principles (ICD-9 CM and CPT coding and rules). In addition to these technical qualifications, I possess the exact complementary skills to enhance my work performance. I am able to work independently prioritizing important tasks while handling multiple tasks simultaneously effectively, always meeting deadlines.

With this variety of skills and qualifications, I hope to be a part of CephTech’s teams. I have enclosed my resume for your review. Please feel free to call me at (012) 343-2456 if you need more information. I’ll be looking forward to an interview call from you. Thanks a lot for your interest.


Sincerely,

(Signature)
