- Write and maintain clear, standardized documentation of payor requirements, submission processes, and authorization workflows
- Build and refine checklists for prior authorization and benefit verification submissions across payors, ensuring consistent format and terminology

- Validate information from multiple sources and assess the credibility of payor guidance before it's documented
Requirements

- Solid research skills and comfort navigating payor portals, websites, and policy documentation
- Exceptional attention to detail
- Ability to work independently and bring structure to ambiguous or undocumented processes
