Job description
M edical Chronologies:
• Review and analyze extensive medical records and bills.
• Create detailed medical chronologies (“MedChrons”) that consolidate key medical events into a concise document.
For instance, when a case note states, “Their elbow hurts. We’re gonna MRI. Here’s what the MRI says,” the paralegal must transform this narrative into a clear, organized chronology—reducing hundreds of pages of documentation to a manageable report (around 20 pages).
Billing Summaries:
• Prepare accurate billing summaries that align with the medical chronology, ensuring that all financial details are clearly documented and separated from the clinical history.
Documentation & Organization:
• Ensure all documentation is well-organized and complies with HIPAA and data security standards.
• Adapt presentation formats as needed (e.g., separating billing information from medical history) to meet the firm’s requirements.
High-Volume Efficiency:
• Manage a high volume of work with precision and speed, without the need for extensive training—candidates must already possess proven expertise.
• Demonstrated experience in analyzing and summarizing medical records and bills.
• Proven track record in creating medical chronologies and billing summaries.
• Candidates must provide samples of previous work (medical chronologies and billing summaries) during the interview process to verify their proficiency and methodology.
Technical and Organizational Skills:
• Exceptional organizational skills with the ability to handle multiple cases simultaneously.
• Experience with billing for services rendered is required.
Communication Skills:
• Excellent written and oral communication skills.
Self-Sufficiency:
• The ideal candidate will already know how to execute these tasks.
• Ability to work independently in a fast-paced environment, ensuring that the documentation provided is both accurate and immediately useful to the legal team.
