Empowering BCBAs to Launch and Run Independent Practices | CEO at Alpaca Health

Location: Remote (U.S. based)

Schedule: Part-Time (10–20 hours/week)

Compensation: Hourly, commensurate with experience

Join our mission to help BCBAs start and grow independent, values-driven ABA practices. At Alpaca Health, we provide modern technology and done-for-you operations to make practice ownership easy and sustainable.

We’re looking for a Credentialing Specialist with deep experience in ABA to join our team and help expand our payer relationships across the country. This is a key operations role focused on securing new contracts with payers in new states, and ensuring that providers are successfully credentialed under both new and existing contracts.

• Research, initiate, and manage the process of applying for new ABA contracts with both commercial and Medicaid payers in new states
• Maintain a database of payer contact points, state-specific rules, and status updates
• Credentialing
• Manage provider credentialing and re-credentialing for existing contracts (including CAQH, Availity, state portals, etc.)
• Ensure accurate, up-to-date documentation for each clinician
• Track expirations, follow up on incomplete files, and resolve any issues that delay provider approval
• Work closely with our internal admin team and clinic partners to collect required documents and complete applications
• Communicate progress and barriers to cross-functional teams
• Create SOPs and checklists for repeatable credentialing workflows

Qualifications

• Must have ABA-specific credentialing experience (e.g., working with CPT codes 97151–97158, behavioral health networks, and ABA-specific payer requirements)
• Demonstrated experience credentialing providers with both Medicaid and commercial payers
• Experience getting new contracts with payers, especially in behavioral health or autism therapy
• Proficient in CAQH, Availity, and relevant portals
• Excellent attention to detail and project tracking
• Strong written and verbal communication skills
• Ability to work independently and manage multiple credentialing pipelines at once
• Experience with payer enrollment in multiple states
• Familiarity with behavioral health startup operations
• Previous experience working remotely in a fast-paced environment

Alpaca Health is an operating system for growing ABA practices. We help BCBAs launch their own practices by providing scheduling, documentation, billing, credentialing, and staffing support—all under one roof. We believe the future of ABA is decentralized, clinician-led, and powered by better infrastructure.
