Medical Billing Specialist Cover Letter Example

Dear Ms. Elm,

I read your ad for a Medical Billing Specialist and am submitting my resume for your review and consideration. I have an Associate Degree in Business Administration and am also a Certified Medical Reimbursement Specialist. While I’ve worked at a few different places, they’ve all been in the medical field, and each has added perspective to my experience.

In my current position, I am a Medical Billing Specialist at a mid-sized insurance company. This perspective has created a real understanding of the results of coding mistakes and how they can affect people’s lives. One of my primary responsibilities is dealing with the inevitable disputes that arise from a denial of coverage often because of improper coding. I provide a valuable link between physicians and the insurance company at times enabling vital patient services.

I maintain a high ethical work standard and understand patient confidentiality procedures. I also have gained an understanding of the importance of the timely posting of payment denials and write-offs. Having begun my career at a private medical practice followed by performing the same job at an insurance company I believe I would bring a well-rounded wealth of experience to the billing department of Hampton Company Name.

I look forward to your call to discuss this mutually beneficial opportunity, and I will make myself available according to your schedule. Thank you for your time and consideration.

Sincerely,

Tia Petersen
