Healthcare Advocate

Mission

The US healthcare system is complex, error-prone, and financially draining. Medical bills and insurance coverage shouldn't be this hard to navigate. At Granted, we're building the one solution every American can turn to for help.

Thanks to AI and new regulations, Granted can fight claim denials, correct billing errors, negotiate bills, and make coverage easier to understandsaving people time, money, and stress. Our goal is simple: to be the #1 platform that empowers all Americans to take charge of their healthcare.

About Us

Founded by a former Oscar Health leader, we're a seed-stage company with $17M in funding. We're lucky to be backed by the founders and investors at Hugging Face, Rocket Money, Oscar Health, CaseText, Forerunner Ventures, RRE Ventures, and more. We are well-funded for the next few years.

About the Role

The Customer Experience (CX) team delivers high-quality support that helps Granted users navigate the U.S. healthcare system with less time, cost, and stress. We're growing quickly, and we're hiring Healthcare Advocates (HA) to take on more complex cases and raise the bar on what "great support" looks like as we scale.

As a HA, you'll own high-impact medical billing and insurance cases end-to-end. Our AI agent will handle the initial intake and information gathering, then hand cases to you when judgment, persistence, and human advocacy are needed to get to resolution. You'll work on a small, high-trust team and partner closely with Product and Engineering to turn frontline learnings into better workflows and a better user experience.

What you'll own:

• You will own a case from handoff to resolution, including next steps, outreach strategy, documentation, and follow-through.

• You will decide how to route each situation (provider, insurer, collections, employer plan, or user education) and what "done" looks like.

• You will be accountable for timely, accurate outcomes and a high-quality user experience , even when the path is unclear.

• You will drive improvements to playbooks and internal processes based on real case patterns.

What You'll Do

• Resolve complex user cases end-to-end , from AI handoff through final outcome.

• Contact providers and insurers via phone, email, and fax to verify coverage, correct claim and billing issues, and unblock next steps.

• Investigate and triage issues across benefits, eligibility, claims, prior auth, billing codes, and payment responsibility.

• Advocate for the user by pushing cases forward with persistence, clear escalation paths, and strong documentation.

• Communicate clearly with users , setting expectations, sharing progress, and explaining options in plain language.

• Maintain high-quality case notes so anyone can understand what happened, what changed, and what to do next.

• Continuously learn healthcare regulations, payer behavior, and internal playbooks, and apply that learning quickly.

• Improve how we operate , by collaborating with other healthcare advocates, identifying repeat issues, tightening workflows, and helping build playbooks that scale - in an early-stage environment.

• Partner with Product and Engineering to turn real case patterns into product improvements and better automation.
