Medical Coding Audit Manager – Oscar Health – Cleveland, OH

Hi, we’re Oscar. We’re hiring an Medical Coding Audit Manager to join our Insurance Operations team.

Oscar is a technology-driven, consumer-focused health insurance startup founded in 2012 and headquartered in New York City. Our goal is to make health insurance simple, transparent, and human. We need your help to do so.

About the role:

Insurance Operations powers some of the fastest scaling operations that are required to run an insurance company: processing claims (including ensuring payment integrity), large-scale provider contracting, member and provider data ingestion, and more.

When you come in, you will support a team responsible for building outstanding processes and collaborating with partners across several departments, such as Data, Clinical, Legal, and Compliance. You will provide interdepartmental leadership on appropriate medical coding and billing norms, which will enable Oscar to develop foundational processes to scale our fraud, waste, and abuse (FWA) program.
