Each role requires strong analytical thinking, sound judgment, and the ability to communicate effectively with insurers, providers, attorneys, and other stakeholders.
While the core review and analysis work is similar, each position supports a different program area and applies that expertise to a distinct set of contract types.
Each role reports to the assigned FPA4 Supervisor within either the Provider Contract Unit or the HCBM Contract Unit.
