I have extensive experience with various chargemaster management software, including 3M 360 Encompass System and Meditech. My role involved regularly updating and auditing the chargemaster to ensure accuracy and compliance with regulatory standards. I am proficient in using these tools to analyze charge data, implement pricing strategies, and integrate new codes efficiently.

When discrepancies arise, I first conduct a thorough investigation to understand the root cause. This involves cross-checking with the latest coding guidelines and consulting with the billing department. I then update the chargemaster accordingly and ensure that all relevant staff are informed about the changes to prevent future discrepancies.

I regularly monitor updates from coding authorities like CMS and AMA, and I schedule quarterly reviews of the chargemaster to incorporate any new codes or changes. Additionally, I collaborate with clinical teams to ensure that all new procedures and services are accurately reflected in the chargemaster.

In my previous role, I encountered a significant discrepancy in the chargemaster that led to billing errors. I resolved this by conducting a detailed audit, identifying the source of the error, and implementing a new validation process. This not only corrected the current issue but also prevented future occurrences.

I prioritize tasks based on their impact on revenue and compliance. Critical updates and audits are handled immediately, while routine maintenance tasks are scheduled weekly. I also use project management tools to track progress and ensure timely completion of all tasks.
