What are the responsibilities and job description for the ASC Claims & Accounts Receivable Specialist position at Horizon Solutions?
Company Description Horizon Solutions is an ASC Development and Management Company dedicated to helping ambulatory surgery centers operate and grow successfully. We partner with ASC leadership and center teams to provide expertise, infrastructure, and support across the business functions that keep a center running effectively. Our goal is to allow clinical teams and center leadership to focus on delivering exceptional patient care while Horizon provides the operational expertise and resources needed to support long-term success.

Role Description We are seeking an experienced ASC revenue-cycle professional to join our team as an ASC Claims & Accounts Receivable Specialist. This role is responsible for managing assigned accounts from claim submission through payment, denial or appeal resolution, and final account closure.
The ideal candidate is someone who takes ownership of their accounts and does more than simply check claim status. You will be responsible for submitting clean facility claims, resolving rejections and denials, validating reimbursement, identifying and pursuing underpayments, and taking meaningful action to move each account toward an appropriate final resolution.
Position Location This is a remote position; however, candidates must be located in the Oklahoma City, Oklahoma area. The position requires regular collaboration and in-person meetings with the Revenue Cycle team, so proximity to the Oklahoma City area is an important requirement of the role.
