  • Work closely with providers and internal stakeholders (e.g., medical reviewers, network management teams) to gather necessary documentation to support claims resolution.

Escalated Claim Resolution :

  • Handle complex or escalated claims that cannot be resolved by the standard customer service team.
  • Mediate between members, healthcare providers, and the insurance company to resolve issues related to claims denials, appeals, and reprocessing.

Training & Mentoring :

  • Serve as a subject matter expert (SME) on claims adjudication and escalation, offering guidance on complex scenarios and disputes.

Advanced Knowledge of Health Insurance Claims :

  • Strong understanding of health insurance benefits, medical coding (ICD-10, CPT, HCPCS), and payer policies. Familiarity with healthcare plan designs, medical necessity requirements, and contract terms.

Analytical Thinking :
