  • Maintain a comprehensive QA program covering RADV, OIG, and internal audits - monitoring the work of internal coders, contracted vendors, and provider documentation alike.
  • Own encounter data integrity, including EDPS submission accuracy, RAPS/EDPS reconciliation, and error resolution.

Analytics, Finance & Bid Support

  • Build and maintain the RA analytics layer - dashboards, KPIs, and provider/member-level reporting that drive continuous improvement in risk score accuracy, coding yield, and program ROI.
  • Partner with Actuarial and Finance on bid development, producing defensible risk score projections, trend analysis, and revenue assumptions grounded in population severity and program performance.
  • Communicate results to executive andย board audiences through clear reports, dashboards, and presentations.

Program & Team Leadership

  • Direct, hands-on RADV experience - working fluency with the CMS-HCC model, including the ย V24-V28 ย transition and its financialย implications.
  • Demonstrated experience managing or transitioning RA vendors (coding, chart retrieval, in-home assessment).
  • Strong analytical skills: able to interrogate data directly in SQL, Power BI, or Tableau, or to spec analytics requirements with precision.+
  • Strong Microsoft Office skills (Word, Outlook, Excel and PP).
