  • Perform in-depth analysis of integrated claims and operational data (medical, pharmacy, lab, auths) to identify cost and trend drivers.
  • Provide proactive financial guidance on latest clinical trends and their potential impact on our financial performance.
  • Accomplish retrospective studies to measure the actual financial and clinical outcomes of implemented policies, comparing results against initial projections.
  • Build repeatable analytic processes that scale across programs.
