Director HIM, Coding Growth & Client Solution

Omega Healthcare Solutions•Boca Raton, FL

13d•$92,826 - $143,880•Remote

About The Position

This role is a customer-facing leadership position focused on driving growth and developing new business prospects within the healthcare sector. The Director will build trusted-advisor relationships with healthcare executives, conduct visits to mine existing accounts, and partner with internal teams to develop client-specific value narratives. A key aspect of the role involves building market visibility and pipeline through thought leadership activities such as publishing white papers, delivering webinars, and speaking at industry forums. The position requires leading discovery workshops, quantifying operational baselines, identifying value levers, and translating findings into quantified Opportunity Assessments with a defensible business case and ROI narrative. The Director will also be responsible for leading RFI/RFP responses, driving opportunities to closure, and ensuring successful handover to transition and delivery teams. A critical component is serving as a senior US-based Subject Matter Expert (SME) on complex coding domains, staying current with regulatory updates and translating them into client-relevant talking points and differentiators. The role involves coaching sales and account management teams, influencing go-to-market strategy, and ensuring all proposed solutions are HIPAA-compliant and ethically sound. The incumbent will champion the firm's quality framework and maintain a current view of US RCM and coding-outsourcing market dynamics.

Demonstrated success authoring winning proposals and driving multi-million-dollar outsourcing engagements to closure.
Direct experience working alongside global/blended (onshore + offshore) delivery teams.
Demonstrable depth in at least two complex coding specialties.
Fluency in US revenue cycle economics — payer mix, contract constructs, denial taxonomies, AR behavior, audit exposure (RAC/MAC/OIG/payer), and case-mix dynamics.

High integrity, customer-obsessed, collaborative across geographies and time zones (including India delivery counterparts).

Lead structured discovery workshops to map client revenue cycles (front-end, mid-cycle workflows like CDI/coding, and back-end billing/denials).
Quantify operational baselines using key RCM performance metrics (DNFB, coder productivity, denial categories, case-mix index, and HCC RAF capture).
Identify tangible value levers — net revenue uplift, denial reduction, AR-days compression, CMI capture, audit recovery avoidance, FTE arbitrage — and intangible value levers — physician satisfaction, CDI maturity, compliance posture, audit defensibility, leadership bandwidth, scalability and time-to-staff.
Specifically target complex specialty coding gaps where the firm has differentiated capability: IP DRG validation, IR/Cardiology, Oncology, Trauma, Transplant, ED Pro-Fee, Same-Day-Surgery, Multi-Specialty Surgical, HCC / RADV, and CDI-coupled coding.
