Suren Khachatryan, CPC
Medical billing and coding expert. He has co-authored and co-signed 200+ reports since 2023 and is ready to answer your billing and coding questions.
He also corrects billing errors. When a provider bills the wrong code and the charge runs higher than the service supports, he identifies the correct code and reduces the charge to match. Every report Fair Measure delivers is read, corrected and signed by him.
The same document is attached to every report he signs, as Exhibit A.
Certified Professional Coder, credentialed by the AAPC.
Earned by examination and maintained by continuing education. It is the credential that says the person reading your client’s bills was examined on the code set he is giving an opinion about, by the body that publishes the rules for using it, and has to keep proving it. An attorney can verify it in the AAPC’s own directory without asking us.

- personal injury reimbursement
- expert reports
- CPT and ICD-10 coding
He reads bills for a living, not as an occasional assignment.
He has worked in medical billing and no-fault claims since 2016, and the first four of those years were spent inside the claim files themselves: opening claims, coordinating benefits, arguing them with insurance adjusters and preparing provider cases for arbitration. He learned what an adjuster does with a bill before he learned to measure one.
