What they actually want (must-haves)
  • Bachelor’s degree in health information management, nursing, healthcare administration, or a related field; equivalent experience will be considered.
  • Active coding certification — CPC, CRC, CCS, CCS-P, RHIA, or RHIT. CRC (Certified Risk Adjustment Coder) strongly preferred.
  • Seven or more years of progressive experience in medical coding, risk adjustment, or clinical documentation integrity, including three or more years in a leadership or program ownership role.
  • Deep working knowledge of the CMS-HCC risk adjustment model, including the V24-to-V28 transition and its practical implications for documentation and capture.
  • Demonstrated experience building or substantially rebuilding a risk adjustment or CDI program, not solely operating an inherited one.
  • Direct experience with RADV or payer audit response, including medical record defensibility review.
Nice to have
  • Experience in value-based, capitated, or full-risk primary care — particularly senior-focused or Medicare Advantage populations.
  • Clinical background (RN or LPN) in addition to coding credentials.
  • CDI certification — CDIP, CCDS, or CCDS-O.
  • Experience in a high-growth or multi-site organization where infrastructure had to be built alongside operations.
  • Experience with CAHPS, HOS, or patient experience improvement work.
