  • Collaborate cross-functionally with Credentialing, Contracting, Compliance, Legal, Provider Operations, Revenue Cycle, Billing, and other teams to ensure alignment across provider data, contracts, credentialing, enrollment, and billing readiness.
  • Maintain accurate and complete enrollment records and documentation across enrollment and provider data systems, ensuring data integrity and readiness for internal audits and compliance reviews.

  • Track and report enrollment metrics, turnaround times, application statuses, CAQH maintenance, and other key performance indicators; identify trends, operational risks, and opportunities for improvement.
  • Lead process improvement and automation initiatives to reduce enrollment processing times, improve accuracy, enhance visibility, and strengthen the provider and internal stakeholder experience.
  • Stay current on payer requirements, CAQH processes, state and federal regulations, and industry best practices, partnering with leadership to proactively address changes and strengthen payer enrollment strategy and provider revenue readiness.

Qualifications:
  • Bachelor's degree preferred (or equivalent work experience).
  • 4+ years of payer enrollment experience in a healthcare organization, medical group, health plan, hospital, CVO, or behavioral health setting.
