  • Provide insight into complex coding decisions, including cases requiring clinical interpretation beyond documentation (lab values, treatment patterns, physician documentation habits)

  • Share inpatient coding expertise with product teams to refine AI logic and improve code assignment accuracy

  • Partner with GTM teams to critique presentations and provide subject matter expertise on inpatient coding workflows

Required Skills and Experience

  • 3+ year of acute care inpatient coding experience

  • Experience working within acute care hospital environments

  • Ability to think critically and explain complex coding decisions

Nice To Have Skills & Experience
