These positions involve registered nurses working from a remote location to assess medical records, claims, and other healthcare-related documents. An example includes a nurse reviewing patient files to determine the appropriateness of care provided for insurance reimbursement purposes.
The increasing demand for these roles stems from the need for cost-effective and efficient healthcare administration. Historically, these tasks were primarily conducted on-site; however, technological advancements and the growing adoption of telehealth have facilitated the shift towards remote work. This transition offers benefits such as increased flexibility for nurses, reduced overhead costs for organizations, and access to a wider pool of qualified professionals.
