Functional Description

The Senior Business/Data Analyst supports the State Medicaid Enterprise Data Warehouse (EDW) and works closely with the Medicaid SME on federal and State reporting.

• Analyze current business processes and systems and document requirements for new or changed processes.
• Help translate federal and State Medicaid policy and reporting guidance into business rules and requirements, with direction from the Medicaid SME.
• Write clear requirements artifacts: business requirements, business rules, use cases, user stories, acceptance criteria, data mappings, and process flows.
• Maintain requirements traceability from request through design, testing, and delivery.
• Schedule and facilitate working sessions with State business users, Optum technical teams, and other partners. Capture minutes, decisions, action items, and follow-ups.
• Track open questions, dependencies, and risks for assigned work, and elevate issues to the SME and project lead when needed.
• Write SQL to profile and analyze Medicaid enrollment, eligibility, provider, claims, encounter, and financial data to answer business questions and confirm requirements.
• Identify and document data anomalies and report variances, and work with ETL, BI, and QA teams to resolve them.
• Share use cases with data and quality analysts for profiling, review results, and confirm alignment with project requirements and Medicaid/CMS guidelines.
• Support testing and UAT, including test scenarios, acceptance criteria, defect reporting, and follow-up.
• Prepare presentations, summaries, and status updates for the SME, internal leadership, and the customer.
• Maintain business documentation, data definitions, the Operations Guide, and related process documentation in SharePoint and Azure DevOps.
• Support end-user training and training materials related to reports and data.
• Mentor junior analysts and serve as backup to the Medicaid SME on day-to-day business questions and reporting processes.
• Peer review project artifacts and help manage intake and change requests, including impact analysis and BA effort estimates.
• Other duties consistent with the role, as assigned.

Required Qualifications

• Bachelor’s degree in business, information systems, public health, or a related field, or equivalent experience.
• 8+ years of business analysis experience, including requirements gathering, documentation, stakeholder facilitation, and user acceptance testing.
• 5+ years of experience working with healthcare data such as claims, encounters, eligibility/enrollment, provider, or financial data.
• 3+ years of experience with Medicaid or public-sector healthcare programs, such as State Medicaid/CHIP agencies, MMIS/MES vendors, Medicaid data warehouses, or Medicaid managed care plans.
• 3+ years of experience writing SQL to analyze and validate data in a relational database or data warehouse.
• Understanding of Fee for Service and managed care claim adjudication, from eligibility and enrollment through claims processing to funding/finance, including managed care encounters.
• Basic understanding of CMS reporting requirements for Medicaid.
• Experience writing use cases, user stories, and acceptance criteria and supporting testing/UAT.
• Experience facilitating meetings and documenting outcomes.
• Proficient in MS Word, Excel, PowerPoint, Visio, MS Project, SharePoint, and Teams.

• Ability to travel to Springfield, IL up to three (3) times per year or as needed.
