The position may also adjudicate claims and support quality initiatives as needed.

• Systems design and requirements support: Partner with Technology and business stakeholders to translate operational needs into clear requirements (rules, routing, templates, decision logic, edits, and reporting), validate design, and support testing (UAT) to ensure systems enable compliant and efficient claims processing.
• Eligibility and efficiency optimization: Identify opportunities to improve eligibility verification, evidence collection, and straight-through processing; recommend automation and controls to reduce rework, turnaround time, and preventable denials while maintaining accuracy and customer experience.
• Training and knowledge enablement: Contribute to training program development by creating curriculum content, job aids, and scenario-based learning; deliver or support training for new hires and tenured staff on product knowledge, systems, and procedure changes.
• Continuous improvement and quality: Analyze operational performance (e.g., turnaround time, accuracy, denial drivers, customer contacts), support root-cause investigations, and implement corrective actions; participate in audits and quality reviews to sustain high standards.
• Regulatory compliance and industry awareness: Stay current on applicable federal/state regulations, market trends, and internal compliance requirements; assess impacts to claims handling and proactively recommend updates to procedures, controls, training, and communications.
• Claims adjudication (as assigned): Review and adjudicate supplemental health claims in accordance with plan provisions and procedures

• 3+ years of experience in supplemental health (voluntary benefits) claims operations and/or claims adjudication (Accident, Critical Illness, Hospital Indemnity, Wellness, etc.).
• Experience with process improvement methods, service-level management, and quality/audit programs.
• Experience creating and maintaining operational documentation (SOPs, workflows, job aids) and communicating process changes to stakeholders.
• Experience supporting implementations or migrations of claims platforms (requirements, configuration support, testing, training, go-live readiness).
• Demonstrated training facilitation experience (live sessions, virtual training, train-the-trainer).
• Demonstrated ability to interpret plan provisions/contract language and apply it consistently to claim scenarios.
• Working knowledge of claims systems and operational controls (queue routing, decision rules, correspondence templates, work item management) and participation in testing/UAT.
• Ability to analyze operational issues, identify root causes, and implement improvements that enhance accuracy, compliance, and cycle time.
• Strong written and verbal communication skills, with the ability to explain claim outcomes and technical concepts clearly and professionally.
