  • Partner directly with customers to understand their revenue cycle pain points, identify financial leakage, and translate complex reimbursement and operational requirements into technical solutions
  • 5-10 years of experience in healthcare economics, revenue cycle management, healthcare consulting, or an equivalent function within a health system, medical group, or payer organization
  • Deep understanding of healthcare reimbursement: how providers get paid, what drives variation in payment, and where revenue leaks across the cycle
