      As a Hospice Senior Billing Specialist at Transitions Care you are responsible for managing the end-to-end billing process for hospice Room and Board services across multiple payors and states. This includes claim preparation and submission, payment reconciliation, denial resolution, and coordination with internal stakeholders. The role requires deep operational knowledge of Medicaid Room and Board billing, familiarity with long-term care facilities, and a proactive approach to ensuring accuracy and compliance within a fast-paced revenue cycle environment.

      • Handle denial management workflows by categorizing claims as Paid, Appeal, Write-Off, or In-Process.
      • Maintain and resolve all differences in the LTC report (e.g., rate mismatches, applied income discrepancies).

      Zero Pay & Payment Posting
      • Investigate and document all Zero Pay claims (Type 1-4); collaborate with remittance and cash posting staff to ensure full resolution.
      • Confirm and post Paid-Not-Posted accounts with documentation from payors and EOBs.

      Audit & Compliance
      • Audit and update the LTC report regularly to reflect accurate billing, status, and reconciliation.
      • Review R&B Roster and LTC data for consistency, accuracy, and completeness.
      • Assist with internal and external audits by maintaining remittance files, claim documentation, and EOBs.
      • Ensure all billing processes adhere to HIPAA, Medicaid, and payer-specific requirements.

      Communication & Collaboration
      • Respond promptly to internal and external emails-especially those from RCM leadership, facility reps, and provider relations teams.
      • Escalate claim trends, delays, and payer issues to the RCM Director.
      • Collaborate with Intake, Clinical, and Compliance teams for accurate service setup and workflow transitions.
