ACCOMPLISHMENTS:

My career in the medical industry directed me into several management positions with strengths in accounting and reimbursement management. Med4home was a start up sister company of Med4home in MO, which consisted of a multi-million dollar respiratory and pharmacy division. I was hired on to start a new billing center in Denver. My outstanding performance substantially decreased A/R and revenue validation, within 6-months; I was promoted to a Regional Billing Center Manager . My center was often referred to as "the five star billing center." Due to a company acquisition, I left Med4home dba Lincare in September 2002. A non-comp ete clause, forced me to work out of the industry for one-year. With ambitions to start up my own business, Northstar Pulmonary Care, LLC was started in Septem ber 2003. In April 2007, we sold Northstar Pulmonary Care to a national medical company in MN, while in August of 2006, I began medical billing for a physician 's office, which led me to pursue and grow my own medical billing and consulting service "ASAP Billing Solutions". My two decades in the medical field and my p assion for helping others not to mention substantial problem solving skills insp ired me to be successful. In August 2008, I started my 3rd company ASAP Diagnos tics, which I own today. With the recent cuts in healthcare benefits, I am interested in perusing a stabl e career in education or medical management, both of which I have very strong pa ssions for.
