Consultant, Healthcare Revenue Cycle (Software)

How you’ll make an impact:

As a Consultant on our Healthcare Revenue Analytics team, you will partner with health system finance and revenue cycle leaders to improve net revenue performance through payor contract modeling, pricing strategy, and reimbursement analysis.  You will leverage StrataJazz® as a tool to implement these strategies and drive measurable financial impact.  The StrataJazz® Decision Support suite is rated #1 in KLAS and is known as the “gold standard” for understanding financial outcomes. You will partner directly with and provide guidance to key team members and executive stakeholders at the largest health systems in the world.

This role is intended for professionals with hands-on experience in healthcare revenue cycle, payor contracting, or reimbursement.  This role is not a pure data, reporting, or IT role.  Success in this position requires a deep understanding of healthcare reimbursement and revenue cycle operations.

Lead design sessions with customers to define user requirements, configure payor contract models, and validate results

Using the StrataJazz® software reporting capabilities, build reports, review net revenue results at the payor and claim level, and ensure accuracy of payor models

Review and analyze customer chargemaster details to provide advisement for trends and market comparisons

Collaborate with Strata's internal teams to continuously improve product capabilities and customer outcomes

Lead onsite and web-based customer training to ensure customers understand specific features and functions related to StrataJazz®

Ability to collaborate across Decision Support teams including Cost Accounting

Communicate proactively with Strata team members, managers, project managers, and executives on issues and risks that may arise during customer engagements. Proactively develop and execute action plans to mitigate risks and ensure successful project completion

Meaningfully contribute to operational improvement and strategic growth projects to enable Strata to continue to scale operations and continually improve our level of service to customers

Willingness to travel within the US as needed to customer locations up to 20–35%.

You’ll Really Wow Us:

Experience with creating “what-if” scenarios and building reports and dashboards

Experience implementing and configuring software

Experience with healthcare cost accounting

Exposure to data tools (e.g. SQL) is helpful but not required; this role is not a technical development position

Estimated Salary Range: $70,000-$90,000
