• Collaborate with Compliance, Product, and Revenue Cycle Management teams to ensure data accuracy and streamline processes.
• Track and analyze performance metrics related to credentialing and enrollment, identifying trends and opportunities for improvement.
• Support the development and ongoing refinement of internal policies, procedures, and audit-readiness documentation.
• Maintain detailed records and audit trails to support both internal reporting and external compliance.

What success looks like in this role: 

• Shortened payer application processing timelines and increased provider enrollment efficiency.
• High compliance rates with NCQA, CMS, and payer-specific credentialing requirements.
• Timely resolution of credentialing escalations and successful completion of payer audits.
• Strong collaboration with internal teams and external stakeholders to support provider go-lives and reimbursement readiness.

• Experience managing CVOs and auditing third-party credentialing processes.
• Proven ability to develop and optimize credentialing workflows and policies.
• Strong communication and stakeholder management skills, especially when working with payers, compliance teams, and leadership.
• Analytical mindset with experience in data tracking, reporting, and operational performance monitoring.
