Contracting Associate information

What is a contracting associate?

Contracting Associates are professionals who assist with the preparation, review, and management of contracts within an organization. They work closely with legal, procurement, and business teams to ensure that agreements are compliant with company policies and applicable laws. Their responsibilities often include drafting contract documents, maintaining records, monitoring contract deadlines, and facilitating communication between parties. This role is vital for minimizing business risks and ensuring mutually beneficial agreements.

What are some common challenges a contracting associate faces when managing multiple contracts simultaneously?

Contracting Associates often juggle several contracts at once, which can present challenges such as keeping track of different deadlines, ensuring compliance with varying requirements, and managing communication between multiple stakeholders. Effective organization and attention to detail are essential to avoid errors or missed obligations. To overcome these challenges, Contracting Associates typically rely on contract management software and clear communication protocols within their teams.

What are the key skills and qualifications needed to thrive as a contracting associate, and why are they important?

To thrive as a Contracting Associate, you need a solid understanding of contract law, negotiation techniques, and attention to detail, usually supported by a bachelor's degree in business, law, or a related field. Familiarity with contract management systems, document review software, and databases is often required, along with knowledge of compliance standards. Excellent organizational skills, clear communication, and the ability to multitask set outstanding professionals apart in this role. These competencies are vital to ensuring contracts are accurate, legally compliant, and aligned with organizational objectives.

Hi We're Oscar. We're hiring a Manager to join our Network Contracting Team.

Oscar is the first health insurance company built around a full stack technology platform and a relentless focus on serving our members. We started Oscar in 2012 to create the kind of health insurance company we would want for ourselves—one that behaves like a doctor in the family.

About the role:

The Manager of Network Contracting is responsible for leading a team of direct reports focused on negotiating, executing, and analyzing contracts with large, national and/or complex healthcare group/system providers, focusing on maintaining and enhancing the provider network while meeting accessibility, quality, and financial goals. The Manager, Network Contracting handles dispute resolution and settlement negotiations, ensuring compliance with company standards and regulatory requirements. This role leverages negotiation skills and working knowledge of provider financial issues to optimize contracts, and collaborates with providers, hospitals and health systems to achieve successful contracting outcomes, all while supporting cost-saving initiatives and the growth of the provider network for a defined market or region.

You will report into the Director, Network Contracting & Services.

  • Manage and negotiate contracts with assigned healthcare providers, focusing on favorable terms and compliance with organizational standards and regulatory requirements.
  • Oversee a small team of contracting associates and specialists, facilitating leadership, guidance, and mentorship by setting strategic objectives, monitoring team performance, providing training and development opportunities, and fostering a collaborative and innovative work environment.
  • Conducts comprehensive reviews and analyses of assigned provider contracts, identifying areas for improvement and optimization.
  • Utilizes data and analytics of provider financial issues and competitor strategies to inform negotiation and contracting decisions and to support the team in doing so.
  • Key player in implementation of contracting policies and workflows; monitors and ensures effective and efficient contracting processes are in place.
  • Monitor key metrics for network performance, cost, and provider satisfaction, and provide reports to leadership for assigned accounts.
  • Ensure you and your team are providing timely resolution of provider issues related to contract terms, reimbursement, and network participation.
  • Build and maintain positive relationships with healthcare providers to ensure network stability and quality.
  • Compliance with all applicable laws and regulations
  • Other duties as assigned

Requirements:

  • 4+ years in healthcare network contracting, including executing contracts with health systems, hospitals or national providers,  provider relations, or network management
  • 2+ years of experience managing complex Provider Network strategies and negotiating complex contracts
  • 2+ years of people management experience
  • 2+ years experience in Health Insurance (Individual and/or Medicare Advantage) and/or Healthcare industry
