Overview

Medicare Billing Manager – Full Revenue Cycle Location: Cedar Rapids, Iowa | In-Office Client: HealthCARE of Iowa Are you ready to roll up your sleeves and take full ownership of the Medicare billing process? Our client, HealthCARE of Iowa — a respected leader in senior healthcare for over 40 years — is bringing billing operations in-house and creating a brand-new position to lead the way. This is a hands-on role from day one. You’ll be directly responsible for submitting claims, working denials, following up with payers, and ensuring reimbursement is collected — not just overseeing the process. Over time, as billing transitions in-house, you’ll have the opportunity to build and lead your own team, shaping the department from the ground up. To be successful in this role, candidates need to have direct, hands-on Medicare billing experience — including claim submission, payment posting, corrections, denials, appeals, and payer follow-up. This expertise is essential, as it will allow you to step in with confidence and make an immediate impact. What You’ll Do

Perform Full-Cycle Medicare Billing: Handle Medicare Part A, Medicare Advantage, and commercial insurance claims from submission through proactive follow-up, corrections, appeals, and denials resolution. Provide Expert Coding Support: Offer specialized coding guidance to ensure accuracy, compliance, and timely reimbursement. Do the Work, Not Just Oversee: Enter claims, troubleshoot billing issues, post payments, and handle day-to-day payer interactions. Collaborate with Facilities: Partner with facility staff, particularly assistant administrators, to resolve billing inquiries, ensure authorizations, and support seamless billing operations. Educate & Train Staff: Develop and deliver training on Medicare billing changes, compliance requirements, and best practices. Analyze & Improve Processes: Track denial trends, communicate findings to stakeholders, and implement process improvements to boost efficiency and reduce write-offs. What We’re Looking For

5–7 years of hands-on medical billing and revenue cycle management, with a strong Medicare focus (skilled nursing or hospital background preferred). Direct experience performing the full billing cycle: claim submission, payment posting, corrections, denials/appeals, and payer follow-up. Strong knowledge of Medicare regulations, reimbursement practices, and compliance. Familiarity and experience with Medicare billing methods, audits and appeals. Ability to work independently with confidence and accuracy, while also collaborating with corporate and facility teams. Adaptable, solutions-driven mindset with the potential to build and lead a billing team. Why This Role Stands Out

This isn’t just another billing job. It’s a chance to: Be recognized as the hands-on Medicare expert across our 16 skilled nursing and assisted living facilities. Build something from the ground up as we transition billing in-house. Start with full ownership, then grow into leadership as the department expands. Work with a supportive corporate team that values your expertise and impact. Compensation/Benefits & Work Schedule

Competitive salary (dependent on experience), and performance-based incentives tied to successful implementation. Full benefits package including PTO. On-site in the Cedar Rapids office. Monday - Friday, standard hours 8:00am-5:00pm (set schedule are flexible to start or end earlier). Skills
