Jobbeschreibung

Claim Specialist needed to combat rising healthcare costs and empower health plans! The Phia Group is a service-oriented consultant that assists health plans nationwide. We provide our clients with innovative cost-cutting solutions and innovative service offerings. We continue to enjoy growth thanks to our most valuable resource – our talented and committed team.

Until recently, surprise medical bills were a leading cause of financial distress and bankruptcy for American families. “Surprise” billing occurs when a patient presents to an out-of-network medical provider through no fault of their own – like in the case of an emergency – and the patient becomes responsible for amounts beyond what their insurance pays. Thankfully, beginning in 2022 with the implementation of the “No Surprises Act”, the legislature effectively banned surprise billing, instead prescribing a system of negotiation and arbitration that health plans and providers must follow to resolve billing disputes.

The Claims Specialist will be responsible for supporting the team on all aspects of the No Surprises Act, including reviewing medical claims, keeping track of strict deadlines, drafting settlement agreements, and preparing submissions for Independent Dispute Resolution, among many other tasks. The candidate will also be expected to support the team on balance billing and overpayment matters as needed. This position requires someone that is proactive, persuasive, persistent, respectful, and assertive. The candidate must be comfortable multi-tasking and possess strong communication skills, both oral and written. The Phia Group is growing quickly and so the candidate must be comfortable in a dynamic fast-paced environment.

At The Phia Group, whose mission is to provide high quality yet affordable healthcare to American employees and their families, you can look forward to not only exceptional benefits for yourself but also being immersed in a company that was named one of USA Today’s Top Workplaces for 2026. Meanwhile, from a regional perspective, The Boston Globe, Courier Journal, and Louisville Business First annually recognize our unwavering commitment to upholding an internal culture of inclusivity, enjoyment, and empathy for our valued employees by listing The Phia Group in their respective lists for the Top Places to Work.
