About this role
At Ascension's Tulsa location, you'd translate clinical documentation into diagnostic and procedural codes that directly impact both patient reimbursement accuracy and claims processing. The role demands active collaboration with physicians to resolve unclear documentation, which means you'll influence not just coding quality but also the integrity of health records across the system. You'll also take on an educational component, conducting chart audits and helping both providers and coding peers strengthen their understanding of best practices.
To qualify, you must hold one of several AHIMA or AAPC certifications (CCS, CPC, Registered Health Information Administrator, or Registered Health Information Technician) before your start date. A high school diploma or one year of relevant coding experience satisfies the education requirement, though prior coding experience is preferred. You'll need to be based in Oklahoma, as this is a full-time, in-office position.
This role suits someone who is detail-oriented, comfortable working across different medical specialties, and motivated by the compliance and accuracy side of healthcare operations. You'd be part of Ascension, a large nonprofit Catholic health system with 99,000+ employees, recognized as a Military-Friendly Gold Employer.
