BRENDON ALVES
Associate,
Medical Coding and Reimbursement
Joined the team on June 28, 2021
Background: I have been in the healthcare industry for the last 5 years working in and out of different medical offices in both the physician office and hospital setting. Most of my experience has been administrative in nature, being a liaison in various capacities between patients and physicians, I was born and raised in Boston, Massachusetts, and studied at the University of Massachusetts Lowell. I moved to Northern Virginia in 2016 and recently discovered my passion which is medical coding and learning more about the billing process for both outpatient and inpatient services and settings. I have found that coding is the best way that I can help make a difference in people’s lives. I am nearing the end of program completion to obtain my CPC to become a certified professional coder. I am thrilled about this new opportunity with SIR and eager to learn everything I can along the way. I am happy to be a part of the SIR family and I look forward to working with you all and meeting you sometime in the future!
I am truly blessed to have joined the SIR team about a month ago. Within this short period, I have already learned more about new/upcoming codes, coding procedures, billing policies and more. I look forward to what my future holds within this organization and what I can bring to it and help to implement to further the future of IR.
