He successfully reconciled several reimbursement payments for our company that have resulted in increased collections.Though he was an asset to our reimbursement efforts, Issa was also called in for additional assignments in other areas of the company, including preparation work for our corporate catalog and documentation assessment during our benefits open enrollment period.Issa worked well with other employees and we would have loved to find him a permanent position if possible.I highly recommend Issa for temporary or permanent employment.He is a team player and would make a great asset to any organization.
