    Preferred Qualifications:

    • Project Management experience - ability to own a multi-step operational workflow, investigate issues, and drive through resolution
    • Healthcare, Medicaid, encounters, EDI, or related payer/health-plan experience
    • Experience with 837 encounter files, SFTP workflows, response files, or rejection management

    What Success Looks Like:

    • Own encounter-management responsibilities for approximately 6–8 clients
    • Generate 837 healthcare encounter files, submit files to client destinations (typically SFTP), and track response files
    • Triage and coordinate remediation of rejections with engineering and internal teams
    • Report ongoing performance and SLA metrics and translate data into business decisions

    • Competitive salary and annual bonus opportunities
    • Remote with flexible hours
    • Comprehensive health, dental, and vision insurance
    • 401(k) with company match
