About Our Client:

Addison Group is partnering with a professional services organization seeking an experienced Denials Specialist with strong hospital billing expertise. This role is ideal for a high-level collector who understands complex technical claims, payor guidelines, and regulatory requirements including NSA and out-of-network billing.

 

Job Description:

The Denials Specialist will manage hospital UB-04 claims from follow-up through resolution, with a heavy focus on denial management.

  • Investigate technical claim issues and determine appropriate next steps for resolution.
  • Manage both denials and appeals, with a primary focus on denial recovery.
  • Handle NSA (No Surprises Act) and out-of-network (OON) collections and dispute processes.
  • Analyze claim adjudication trends and identify patterns in payor behavior.
  • Ensure proper documentation and compliance throughout the resolution process.
  • Work independently while maintaining communication with internal stakeholders.

Requirements:

  • 5+ years of hospital claims experience required.
  • Strong background working with UB-04 claims.
  • Extensive experience managing denials (more denial-focused than appeals).
  • Experience with NSA and out-of-network (OON) collections required.
  • Heavy commercial payor experience strongly preferred.
  • High-level collector with strong analytical and problem-solving skills.
  • Ability to interpret complex EOBs and technical claim data.

Additional Details:

  • Schedule: Monday - Friday, 8:00am – 5:00pm
  • Assignment Type: Direct Hire
  • Work Model: Fully onsite
  • Environment: Professional office setting
  • Dress Code: Business casual
  • Start Date: ASAP

Perks:

  • Stable, high-level role focused on complex hospital claims
  • Opportunity to work in a specialized, payor-heavy environment
