Jenna Mirchin, CPC, CPMA, CGSC
Jenna Mirchin is currently employed by a 500 provider multi-specialty group in New York as their Senior Coding Manager. She oversees the group’s Coding and Compliance Department.
She began her career while still in college in 2007 and in about 10 years she advanced her career in several different aspects. She started at a small, pediatric, multi-specialty group in their billing office posting EOBs and making collections calls. In 2010, when she graduated SUNY Albany with her Bachelors’ in economics, she became that practice’s Billing Manager. After that Jenna went on to become a Certified Professional Coder (CPC) at a larger, multi-specialty group, with about 200 providers. Jenna then moved on to be Supervisor of Cash Applications of an even bigger group of 300 providers, where she was responsible for insurance and patient credits and collections. During this time her prior job was recruiting a new Manager and she applied and was then offered the position of Patient Financial Services Manager and shortly thereafter was promoted to Professional Billing Operations Manager. Jenna was responsible for the patient financial services, billing and coding departments. She was then recruited by the large group she works for now.
From her experience she has acquired vast knowledge of different healthcare systems and what it takes to be distinguishable and successful. In all successful systems she has found coding and reimbursement to be one of the most important components because it accounts for how money is made and it is constantly changing.
She is currently attending UCONN with an expected graduation in 2019 to obtain her MBA. Jenna is also currently studying to take her CRC (Certified Risk Adjustment Coder) Exam.
