Dear Prospective Employer,
The role of an inpatient coder is key in securing Revenue, maintaining a high level of accu-
racy, and implementing any changes for that year. The facilities I am familiar with are Acute
Care, Critical Access and Trauma level II, and III.
Collaborating with the CDI specialist was an implementation I provided, as far as the workflow
process. The process became one step instead of multiple levels, securing a quicker response
time. Knowing the high dollar accounts set standards to improve revenue flow, in terms of re-
viewing the documentation necessary to accurately code. The charges reflect the documenta-
tion in the record and keep a high level of accuracy which will provide less denials.
I provide the service that increases revenue and maintain the workflow for the client. Im-
provements are made based on my suggestions, I look for inefficiencies and make improve-
ments. Dependability in accurate code assignment is how the facility will continue to main-
tain it's reputation as well as continue the constant flow of revenue. The improvements that
were made in the ICD-10 CM/PCS books have made
the query process essential at accuracy in coding and improving revenue.
I know this role and have over seven years of experience at successfully improving revenue,
and overall accuracy. I would love an opportunity to code for you and look forward to speak-
ing with you.
Sincerely,
Jennifer L. Knapton, CPC since 2011
