• Serve as the subject matter expert for governmental payers, with deep expertise in Medicaid programs, reimbursement structures, and payer behavior.
• Analyze trends in payer performance, reimbursement patterns, and denial drivers to inform strategic recommendations and operational adjustments.
• Own and monitor key revenue cycle KPIs (e.g., cash flow, AR days, first-pass resolution), translating data into actionable insights for leadership.
• Oversee quality assurance and governance across credentialing, payer selection, eligibility verification, and claims submission to ensure accuracy, compliance, and scalability.
• Provide high-level guidance on complex coding and billing scenarios, ensuring appropriate modifier usage and regulatory alignment.
• Identify opportunities for process optimization, automation, and workflow redesign to improve efficiency and financial outcomes.
• Act as a strategic problem solver, proactively addressing risks and opportunities within the revenue cycle landscape.
