What are the responsibilities and job description for the Medical Biller and Credentialing Specialist - Pediatric Speech, OT, & ABA position at Reno-Tahoe Therapy Group?
Overview: Medical Biller & Credentialing Specialist - Pediatric Speech, OT & ABA
Reno-Tahoe Therapy Group | Reno / Carson City, NV
-In-Person Placement. NO remote applicants
Full-time only · 8 hours/day · Monday–Friday
We’re a clinician-owned pediatric clinic serving families across the Reno-Tahoe area with speech therapy, occupational therapy, and ABA. We treat kids like family and run a small team.
This is a one-person billing and credentialing role for the whole practice. You will own the revenue cycle for speech, OT, and ABA — eligibility, authorizations, claims, payments, denials, appeals, and AR — and keep clinicians credentialed with payers so billing can actually go out. You won’t be one person in a large billing department. You’ll be the person who runs billing and credentialing here, with direct access to the clinic director and the clinical team when you need information or a documentation fix.
I’m the clinic director. I read every application myself and will actually call or email you. No ghosting.
This role is for someone who
- Wants to own billing and credentialing, not just process claims
- Follows work through to the end
- Notices issues early and handles them
- Keeps AR from sitting and payer enrollment from stalling
- Communicates clearly with clinicians, payers, and families
- Takes pride in accuracy and follow-through
If you like being the billing and credentialing person for a small practice - not a ticket in a queue - this fits.
What you’ll do
Billing
- Ensure claims are clean for timely automated submission for speech (e.g. 92507), OT (e.g. 97530), and ABA (e.g. 97151, 97153, 97155) to Nevada Medicaid and commercial payers
- Support the team for accurate verification of eligibility and benefits from the get-go
- Track and obtain authorizations / re-authorizations so care doesn’t stall
- Post unposted payments that were not automatically posted, reconcile EOBs, and actively manage accounts receivable
- Identify system errors that need support to improve efficiency
- Work denials and underpayments — correct, resubmit, and appeal until resolved
- Partner with clinicians and front office when documentation or coding needs a fix
- Keep records accurate and HIPAA-tight
- Flag payer-policy changes that affect pediatric therapy billing
- Create a system of procedures for efficient and thorough billing processes
Credentialing
- Complete and track provider enrollment and credentialing with Medicaid and commercial payers
- Maintain CAQH / payer profiles, licenses, NPI, insurance, and supporting documents
- Follow up on pending applications, re-credentialing, and demographic updates
- Coordinate with clinicians to collect what’s needed so files stay complete
- Keep a clear tracker of who is in-network, pending, or due for renewal
- Create a system of procedures for efficient and thorough credentialing processes
Schedule
- Full-time starting November 9th, 2026 (part-time [15-30 hours/week] if on boarded before that)
- 8 hours per day, 5 days per week (Monday–Friday)
- Clinic hours — no evenings, no weekends
What we’re looking for
- 2 years of medical billing (pediatric therapy, ABA, speech, or OT strongly preferred)
- Experience with provider credentialing / payer enrollment (or strong willingness to own it and learn our payers quickly)
- Comfort with CPT/ICD-10, modifiers, unit-based ABA billing, and Medicaid commercial rules
- Experience with a practice-management / EMR system and a clearinghouse (we’ll train on ours)
- Strong ownership, organization, and follow-through
- Calm and professional with payers and families
- Comfortable working independently as the practice’s biller and credentialing lead
Nice to have: CentralReach, Raintree, or similar pediatric/ABA software; CAQH; CPB or equivalent; Nevada Medicaid experience.
What we offer
- Competitive pay (discussed with qualified candidates)
- Bonuses available
- Full-time, 40 hours/week
- Small, supportive team and direct access to leadership
- Benefits for qualifying hours
- A role that matters: clean billing and current credentialing keep kids in therapy, opportunity to help build strong foundations for a small yet growing practice
