SOC 29-2072 · Medical Records Specialists
Healthcare revenue cycle, tested on the work
Work a queue of denials with an assistant that will draft a persuasive appeal for the one claim you should be conceding.
The assignment
What the candidate is asked to do
The candidate disposes a batch of denied claims from one payer against the payer's own manual, the charts behind the claims, and a coding vendor's playbook, with an AI assistant available throughout. The vendor's engine has already drafted the appeals, and nothing inside the conversation can settle whether the denial reason on the remittance is the one the letter answers.
Time: 40 to 60 minutes, hard-capped 15 to 20 minutes past whatever the case states and never above 75, with a short written debrief after. Paused time does not count against either.

What the reviewer watches for
The healthcare revenue cycle failure modes
Each maps to a scored dimension, so the reviewer's finding arrives with the moment attached.
Is what each claim has to settle stated before any appeal text exists?
Whether the opening move asks what is true, what is wrong, or what the options are — and whether a constraint or criterion is named in the same breath.
Is the payer's own manual demanded and opened, or is the vendor playbook taken as the rule?
Whether sources are demanded for a specific claim rather than requested in general — and whether at least one is actually opened.
Is the call to concede a claim kept, or does every claim leave as an appeal?
Whether the split between the assistant's work and the candidate's own acts is deliberate rather than convenient, read from the record of both.
Why this bank
Why we built the healthcare revenue cycle bank
Medical coding is the occupation where the machine already holds the entry rung and the human's whole remaining job is judging its output — and where a confident wrong answer is a False Claims Act exposure rather than a rework ticket, which is what turns verification from a preference into a budget line.
This bank is live and has passed author review at launch quality.

The construct
Six dimensions, scored separately
- D1 · Problem framing Did the first move go after understanding, or straight for output?
- D2 · Evidence sourcing Did they demand evidence for the claim that mattered?
- D3 · Delegation boundary What did they keep, and what did they hand over?
- D4 · Working structure Did anything exist between the brief and the answer?
- D5 · Output rejection Was anything the assistant produced refused, and on what grounds?
- D6 · Verification Was anything tested against the world, and did the result change something?
