Job Description

Remote Medical Coder — Maryland (Fully Remote)

Your Impact Begins Here

Numbers aren’t just numbers when you’re working behind the scenes in healthcare—they’re lives, stories, and the very reason a practice keeps running smoothly. In this role, you won’t just code—you’ll give shape and structure to the health journeys of people across Maryland. Every claim you review, every code you clarify, removes barriers for patients seeking treatment while freeing clinicians to focus fully on patient care and healing.

Are you someone who sees the meaning behind the details? Ready to elevate your coding expertise into real-world impact—from wherever you call home? You belong here.

Why This Role Matters

Your expertise unlocks timely reimbursements, ensuring Maryland’s healthcare providers can keep their promises to patients. Here, accuracy isn’t just a metric—it’s trust. Mistakes cost time, money, and peace of mind. That’s why we empower you to get it right, every time, with the best remote support and tech. This is the difference you make, day in and day out.

How You’ll Make a Difference

• Champion accuracy in ICD-10, CPT, and HCPCS coding for outpatient and inpatient claims. Every correctly entered code means a patient gets the care they need—without delays.
• Navigate medical records and documentation with a sharp, investigative mindset. Your thoroughness will prevent denied claims and smooth out billing cycles for thousands of Marylanders.
• Be the trusted voice between providers and payers. Whenever a code is questioned, you’ll be the calm problem-solver who bridges understanding and clears the path for payment.
• Keep current with compliance, payer guidelines, and emerging trends. You’ll help set the gold standard for ethical, up-to-date coding practice.
• Identify spot patterns, surface bottlenecks, and collaborate with quality teams to transform insights into process improvements that permeate our entire workflow.
• Take the lead in audit readiness—because proactive is always better than reactive. Your preparation keeps everyone ahead of the curve.
• Simplify technical concepts for teammates over chat or video calls, making knowledge-sharing feel natural—never intimidating.

What Success Looks Like

You’ll know you’re thriving here when clinicians trust your judgment, claims come back paid the first time, and your recommendations shape team best practices. Your calm in complex situations reassures both colleagues and clients. More than numbers, you’ll measure your success by the difference patients feel in their care journey—speed, clarity, and confidence.

Tools & Tech That Power Your Day

• You’ll use cloud-based coding and billing platforms, EMR/EHR software, and secure communication tools—all optimized for remote work.
• Our stack includes 3M, Epic, and Cerner, along with AI-enabled auditing for enhanced efficiency (always with your judgment at the helm).
• Need to clarify something? Zoom, Teams, and Slack keep you connected without missing a beat.
• Our commitment to privacy and compliance ensures every tool is up to HIPAA standards, so you can work confidently anywhere in Maryland—or beyond.

The Work Environment—From Your Home to Ours

Remote doesn’t mean alone. Here, you’ll join a team that shares wins, solves challenges, and celebrates milestones—virtually, but authentically. We prioritize work-life balance: you’ll have dedicated focus time, regular video huddles for collaboration, and resources for ongoing learning.

Our culture values accountability, transparency, and a supportive spirit. When you spot a better way, your idea is heard—and acted on. You’re empowered to take initiative, not just follow a script. You’ll partner with billing experts, clinicians, and compliance leads to make healthcare simpler for everyone who touches it.

Growth & Support

• Mentorship is built in. Senior coders and quality leads are a message away, always ready to share insights or offer guidance on tricky cases.
• Regular, paid training on the latest coding standards, payer rules, and tech tools means you’re never standing still.
• We invest in your certifications—AHIMA, AAPC, and specialty credentials—because your growth fuels ours.
• Real advancement: Top performers move into audit, education, or leadership roles, shaping how we code and care for years to come.

Who You Are

• You’re certified (CPC, CCS, RHIT, or similar), with hands-on experience in remote medical coding for multi-specialty practices or hospitals.
• Your knack for pattern-spotting enables you to catch the subtle details that others often overlook, especially in complex patient records.
• When someone’s stuck, you’re the go-to—breaking down guidelines or tech updates in ways that make sense for everyone.
• Compliance isn’t just a checkbox—it’s your professional ethic. You know how to spot gray areas and bring clarity.
• You simplify complex ideas—whether it’s over Zoom or Slack. Your communication brings people together, not apart.
• Change excites you. Whether it’s a new billing platform or payer regulation, you adapt fast and help others do the same.

A True Story—Real Impact

Not long ago, one of our coders caught a recurring error in claims from a major provider. Instead of just flagging it, she mapped the issue, proposed a system tweak, and coached the team on the update. That single insight led to faster payments for hundreds of patients—and inspired a new best practice company-wide. This is the kind of initiative that changes healthcare, one smart coder at a time.

What You’ll Earn

You’ll start at $61,500 annually—with room for bonuses and career growth as you show your impact.
