  • Cross-Departmental Collaboration: Serve as a liaison with service operations and other departments to provide status updates on claims reviews and coordinate actions as needed.
  • Data Analysis and Trending: Analyze performance data to identify patterns and trends, collaborate with service operations to address process improvements, and recommend modifications to medical policy.
  • Fraud Detection Support: Support fraud investigators with medical review expertise to detect and address fraudulent activities.
  • Mentorship: Act as a resource and mentor to other nurse auditors, supporting their professional growth and development in audit practices.

    • Minimum 5 years of clinical nursing experience, preferably with exposure to hospital bill auditing or defense auditing.
