About the role

  • We're looking for an Optimization Analyst to help with our fast growing team!
  • Our Payor Optimization team sits between our clients, Client Success, and payors-working to ensure providers receive accurate and timely reimbursement following IDR determinations.
  • Our rapidly growing business is hiring an analyst to triage CS escalations and close the loop on claims that need follow-through.

Responsibilities

  • You'll own the daily flow of the Asana Payor Compliance queue, dig into the client and payor situations CS flags, and pull claims data from Metabase to uncover the real root cause.
  • Lead deep-dive payor reviews: You'll investigate payors to find what's actually blocking payment, whether it's routing issues, INN processing, or eligibility gaps. Then you'll document what you learn and communicate a plan through data storytelling.
  • Shape the playbook: You'll build CS-facing materials, sharpen our SOPs as workflows evolve, and spot the patterns that turn into bigger wins. Around here, small, consistent wins compound, and you'll be the one stacking them.
  • People energize you. You're warm, personable, and quick to build trust, with genuine customer-service instincts in every conversation with CS and payors.
  • While processes like IDR (Independent Dispute Resolution) were designed to promote fairness, they're often administrative-heavy, time-consuming, and difficult to navigate without the right tools.

Nice to have

  • Excel is home turf, pivot tables included.
  • People energize you.
  • You write with clarity and confidence.
  • Your findings and rationale become the language CS takes straight to clients.
  • SQL, data storytelling, or dashboard know-how in Metabase, Power BI, or similar
  • Comfort with Asana, Notion, or similar workflow tools

Compensation

  • Competitive compensation, including equity

  • We're building solutions that enable providers to operate with clarity, control, and confidence across the reimbursement journey.
  • You've spent 1 to 3 years in healthcare operations, revenue cycle, managed care, consulting (highly preferred), or an analyst role in finance or healthcare.
