Complex Root Cause Analysis & Remediation: Independently investigate complex claims, configuration, and operational issues. Determine root causes and impact, develop evidence-based recommendations, and drive resolution across functions.
Concept Implementation & Validation: Partner with clinical, coding, and reimbursement SMEs to translate concept logic into clear implementation requirements. Collaborate with Engineering, Product, Data Science, and operational teams to support configuration, testing, deployment, and troubleshooting.
Program & Process Improvement: Identify recurring inefficiencies, capacity constraints, and operational risks. Partner with department leadership to evaluate and implement improvements involving workflows, resource allocation, automation, and technology.
Data-Driven Decision-Making: Use claims information, operational metrics, analytical tools, and performance trends to investigate issues, evaluate opportunities, and inform recommendations.
Cross-Functional Leadership & Influence: Develop a clear point of view, constructively challenge assumptions, and bring together stakeholders across Payment Integrity, Claims, Compliance, Engineering, Product, and Data Science to achieve measurable outcomes.
Project Management & Operational Scalability: Independently lead complex, multi-phase initiatives, manage competing priorities and dependencies, and strengthen repeatable processes, knowledge sharing, and cross-coverage.
