    The incumbent ensures that accurate and complete medical billing information for each case is promptly submitted to the lab's medical billing agent.

    Under the general direction of the revenue cycle supervisor, the PC3 works independently to resolve payment issues with commercial and government sources that provide healthcare coverage through numerous types of health plans.

    The PC3 works with the lab's billing agent to rapidly fulfill requests for additional information (RAIs) for claims that cannot be filed.

    The PC3 responds to incoming billing inquiries from patients, referring medical practices, other diagnostic labs, health plan providers, and the lab's billing and collections agencies.

    The final salary and offer components are subject to additional approvals based on UC policy.

    The compensation ranges listed online for roles not covered by a bargaining unit agreement are very wide, however a job offer will typically fall in the range of 80% - 120% of the established mid-point.

    For roles covered by a bargaining unit agreement, there will be specific rules about where a new hire would be placed on the range.

    Our educational programs include a research-intensive academic residency program and fellowships in cytopathology, dermatopathology, gastrointestinal and liver pathology, gynecologic pathology, neuropathology and surgical pathology.

    The Division processes approximately 180,000 cases per year and is responsible for the billing and collection of payments from hundreds of different third-party payers and organizational clients.
