In the first 90 days, success means demonstrating the ability to oversee a team of Healthcare Auditors conducting independent, standards-based invoice audits and documenting results in a detailed and accurate manner based on criteria with minimal supervisory review. Additionally, the Project Manager should demonstrate the ability to understand and manipulate complex Excel workbooks and implement continuous improvement to streamline training and processes.

  • Quickly identify and address any deviations from the project plan, implementing corrective actions to meet client requirements.
  • Enhance quality control processes throughout the project, from planning to execution and reporting, to ensure excellence in delivery.
  • Oversee the project's financial aspects, including budgeting, forecasting, and managing any variances, and develop strategies to address financial challenges.
  • Report project status to senior leadership on a monthly basis, providing insightful updates on progress and challenges.
  • Ensure strict adherence to VA policies, company procedures, and regulatory requirements throughout the project lifecycle.
  • Conduct independent evaluations of medical records and claims to identify potential fraud, waste, and abuse, using a comprehensive understanding of medical procedures, Medicare policies, and coding guidelines.
  • Utilize expertise in coding conventions, fraud detection, reimbursement practices, and relevant laws to identify irregular billing patterns.
  • Maintain a deep knowledge of applicable regulations, coding standards, and VA policies, applying this understanding to perform criteria-based audits.
  • Prepare detailed audit documentation and working papers in line with GAGAS standards, reflecting thorough fieldwork and conclusions.
  • Collaborate with team members to define project requirements, validate findings, and ensure the accuracy of audit results.
  • Assist in the development of written summaries of audit results, contributing to formal reports and presentations.
  • Conduct root-cause analyses to identify underlying issues and recommend both corrective and preventative measures for continuous improvement.
  • Operate both independently and as part of a larger auditing team, focusing on comprehensive audits related to Medical Disability Exams for the Department of Veterans Affairs, ensuring adherence to all contractual and regulatory standards.
Skills:
  • Possess a Bachelor's or Master's degree in a relevant field.
