About the role

Leads billing operations, develops SOPs, manages the billing team, partners with Clinical Operations and Product & Engineering on automation, and ensures audit readiness.
Responsibilities

- Track and drive the core RCM metrics: clean claim rate, days in AR, denial rate and overturn rate, and collection lag by payer. Report on them weekly and be able to explain every movement.
- Own payer enrollment and credentialing for our clinicians and entities, and maintain payer-specific billing rules, fee schedules, and adjudication quirks.
- Build and maintain SOPs for every RCM workflow, and manage and coach the billing team, assigning work, reviewing quality, and holding the team to the SOPs you write.
- Partner with Clinical Operations to ensure documentation and time capture support the codes we bill, and provide feedback on upstream quality impacting downstream denials.
- Resolve patient-facing billing questions and payer-side escalations with a patient-first, de-escalating approach.
- Own audit readiness and response for billing: maintain documentation standards that meet CMS standards.
- Administer provider payment reconciliation in partnership with Finance, aligning clinician/contractor payments with delivered services.
- Partner with Product & Engineering to test and adopt automation and AI-assisted billing tools, providing feedback on effectiveness and limitations.
Qualifications
- 5+ years in revenue cycle or medical billing, including 2+ years managing a billing team, ideally in a multi-payer environment with Medicare/Medicaid volume.
- Experience owning end-to-end RCM metrics (clean claim rate, days in AR, denial rate) and driving improvements.
- Knowledge of claim submission, denial/appeal workflows, ERA reconciliation, payer enrollment/credentialing, and payer communications.
- Experience building processes in rapidly changing environments.
- Experience with payer or CMS audits (TPE, RAC, MAC, UPIC, or commercial payer reviews) and successful audit outcomes.
- Detail-oriented, organized, and able to see initiatives through to completion.
