Who we are

At ClearPath Health Solutions, we’ve spent the last eight years turning piles of clinical notes into clean, claim‑ready data for providers across the Midwest. Our client base stretches from small family practices in Sunrise, Florida to large hospital systems in neighboring states. What keeps us honest is the belief that accurate coding isn’t just a line‑item on a spreadsheet; it’s the bridge that lets doctors focus on patients while we make sure the paperwork doesn’t fall through the cracks. We’re a remote‑first company, but we still love to meet up for quarterly “coding retreats” at the downtown coworking spaces of Sunrise, Florida. Those days are as much about swapping stories about tricky diagnoses as they are about celebrating the first time a clean claim hit a payer without a single denial. If you’ve ever felt the rush of seeing a $1,200 reimbursement land on a provider’s balance because your code was spot‑on, you’ll understand why our team gets excited about the little wins.

Why this role exists now

Over the past six months, two things have converged to make our demand for seasoned coders spike dramatically: 1.

A new Medicare update

– The 2025 ICD‑10‑CM and CPT revisions added over 150 new codes, especially around tele‑health and remote patient monitoring. Our clients are scrambling to adapt, and they need people who can translate those updates into clean claims without a hitch. 2.

A surge in outpatient services

– After the pandemic, many physicians in Sunrise, Florida shifted a sizable portion of their practice to same‑day procedures and virtual visits. That shift has inflated our daily claim volume by roughly 38 % compared with the same period last year. Because of those pressures, we’re adding a pair of Remote Healthcare Coders to our “Coding Concierge” squad. The goal is simple: get the new codes into the system fast, keep denial rates under 3 %, and keep our billing team’s turnaround time under 48 hours for any claim that lands on their desks.

What you’ll be doing – a day in the life

-

Review and abstract

chart notes from electronic health records (EHR) such as Epic, Cerner, and Athenahealth, flagging any ambiguous language that could affect coding accuracy. -

Assign ICD‑10‑CM, CPT, HCPCS, and DRG codes

for outpatient, inpatient, and tele‑health encounters, ensuring every claim complies with Medicare’s new rules. -

Run batch edits

in 3M™ Encoder (version 2024) and verify that the automated suggestions line up with the clinical picture. -

Collaborate with billing specialists

via Slack and Microsoft Teams to resolve any pending denials, providing concise, evidence‑based explanations. -

Participate in weekly “code‑clinic” meetings

where senior coders dissect the most complex cases from the week – think multi‑system diagnoses with overlapping procedures. -

Document coding decisions

in our internal Knowledge Base (Confluence) so that the next person who sees a similar case can follow the same logic. -

Audit a random 5 % sample of claims

each month, calculating the denial rate and presenting trends to the Quality Assurance lead. -

Stay current

by completing at least one CME‑accredited coding course per quarter; we sponsor the costs through our partnership with AAPC.
