- Support audits and charge validations to identify opportunities for revenue recovery and compliance improvement.
- Collaborate with IT and application teams (e.g., Epic) to ensure CDM changes are integrated with front-end charge capture tools and workflows.
- Monitor regulatory changes and payer guidance to proactively maintain CDM accuracy and minimize claim denials related to coding or documentation issues.
