Responsibilities
- Design and execute audit plans testing coding accuracy, claims integrity, and submission quality across the full billing lifecycle.
- Identify revenue leakage, denial trends, and overpayment exposure before they become repayment obligations or enforcement matters.
- Monitor adherence to payer contract terms and flag variances to leadership.
- Audit RPM enrollment eligibility, patient consent documentation, and program onboarding against CMS and payer requirements.
- Review time-tracking records and billing submissions for adherence to CPT code time thresholds (CPT 99453, 99454, 99457, 99458).
- Validate that RPM devices carry appropriate FDA clearance and are used within intended use.
- Partner with billing and RCM operations on corrective action — define the finding, own the follow-through, and confirm remediation closed the gap.
- Cook with Legal when findings create disclosure or self-reporting obligations.
- Deliver the independent auditing and monitoring function required by OIG Element 6 — your work feeds directly into the enterprise compliance program.
- Develop the annual audit work plan and present results, trends, and risk ratings to the VP of Compliance and the Compliance Committee.
- Build and lead a small audit team (RCM Audit Lead + RPM Compliance & Audit Analyst); set standards, develop talent, and model the discipline you expect.
- Maintain audit-ready documentation supporting a defensible record of monitoring under OIG Element 6, and proactively identify systemic risk patterns as RPM volume scales.
- Other duties as assigned.
Qualifications
- 7–10 years in healthcare compliance, revenue cycle, or coding audit, with strong domain expertise.

- Familiarity with OIG guidance on effective compliance programs (Seven Elements), particularly Element 6.
- Experience auditing telehealth or remote monitoring programs strongly preferred.
- CPC, CHC, CPCO, AHIMA coding credential, or equivalent a plus.
- Ability to translate audit findings into executive-ready risk summaries — findings reports that drive action, not confusion.
- Comfortable building a function from the ground up; systems thinker who is calm in ambiguity.
- High integrity and sound judgment; low-ego collaborator who partners well with Billing, RCM Operations, and Legal.
