• Medical Necessity Clinical Assessment Assess the medical necessity and appropriateness of hospitalisation, proposed treatments, diagnostic procedures, and expected length of stay based on available clinical documentation.


• Reimbursement Estimation Deduction Analysis Estimate the likely net insurance reimbursement after accounting for co-payments, deductibles, sub-limits, room-rent restrictions, non-payable expenses, and other applicable deductions.


• Medical Risk Identification Recommendations Identify documentation gaps, clinical inconsistencies, potential misrepresentation, and fraud indicators. Provide clear, documented recommendations to proceed, seek additional information, restrict the assessed amount, or decline financing.


• Stakeholder Coordination Case Reassessment Coordinate with hospital medical teams, insurance desks, TPAs, and internal credit and operations teams to resolve queries and reassess cases when diagnoses, treatment plans, or hospital estimates change.

• Experience: 4-8 years of relevant experience in Indian health insurance claims, including at least 2 years of hands‑on medical assessment or claims adjudication.


• Mandatory Experience: Practical experience in reimbursement claims assessment is essential.


• Claims Adjudication Expertise: Demonstrated experience in assessing claim admissibility, medical necessity, policy coverage, and payable or reimbursable amounts, rather than solely handling documentation, coordination, or claim tracking.


• Insurance Knowledge: Strong understanding of retail and group health insurance policies, policy exclusions, waiting periods, pre‑existing diseases, common deductions, and repudiation grounds.


• Admission-Stage Assessment: Ability to evaluate incomplete medical records and hospital estimates, identify coverage and clinical risks, and determine the additional information required before financing.

• Core Competencies: Strong clinical judgement, analytical skills, attention to detail, decision‑making ability, and effective stakeholder communication.


• Key Performance Indicators (KPIs): Accuracy of estimated reimbursement compared with actual insurance settlement. Quality and consistency of medical risk assessments and financing recommendations. Timely identification of coverage gaps, potential deductions, and documentation deficiencies. Assessment turnaround time and completeness of case documentation and audit trails.
