đź“‹ Description
- • The Remote Risk Adjustment Medical Coder at Guidehouse plays a critical role in ensuring accurate medical coding for risk adjustment, directly impacting reimbursement, compliance, and quality reporting for healthcare clients. This role is essential for maintaining the integrity of clinical data used in value-based care models and federal programs.
- • Day-to-day responsibilities include reviewing clinical documentation to extract diagnoses and procedures, applying accurate ICD-10-CM, CPT, and HCPCS codes in accordance with official guidelines, and ensuring all services are properly coded for billing and reporting. The coder works through a daily review queue, corrects charts requiring re-bills within 24 hours, and communicates discrepancies to facilities and supervisors promptly.
- • The role requires maintaining 95% coding accuracy while meeting productivity standards, monitoring and reporting downtime, and collaborating with IQC (Internal Quality Control) staff to uphold quality benchmarks across client facilities.
- • Coders are responsible for staying current with federal and state coding regulations, maintaining professional certifications (CPC or CRC), using Guidehouse’s internal coding resources, and ensuring HIPAA-compliant workstation practices at all times.
- • The position involves proactive communication—responding to provider coding/billing inquiries within eight hours, participating in team collaboration to maximize reimbursement, and escalating coding principle discrepancies to supervisors immediately.
- • Coders must check Guidehouse email every two hours during work sessions, adhere to division policies and procedures, and contribute to team efficiency by supporting accurate, timely, and compliant coding operations.
- • This role offers the opportunity to deepen expertise in HCC risk adjustment, annual wellness visits, and evaluation & management coding while working with diverse healthcare data across multiple specialties and payer types.
- • The coder will gain experience in resolving payer denials, understanding CMS HCC models (including ESRD, PACE, RX, CDPS, and HHS variants), and contributing to audit readiness and regulatory compliance initiatives.
- • Working remotely for a national consulting firm like Guidehouse provides exposure to enterprise-level coding standards, cross-functional collaboration, and opportunities for professional growth in healthcare analytics and compliance.

- • High School Diploma or equivalent
- • 3+ years of HCC Risk Adjustment Coding experience
- • Current CPC or CRC certification from AAPC, which must be maintained throughout employment
- • Proven EMR (Electronic Medical Records) experience
- • Strong working knowledge of federal and state coding regulations and official coding guidelines (ICD-10-CM, CPT, HCPCS)
🏖️ Benefits
- • Comprehensive medical, prescription, dental, and vision insurance
- • 401(k) retirement plan with potential employer match
- • Tuition reimbursement, personal development, and skills certification opportunities
