• Able to read payer policies, fee schedules, and EOBs and explain a denial in plain terms.
• Experience with copay assistance and manufacturer reimbursement reconciliation.

• Call payers to confirm coverage, fee schedule, and buy and bill vs specialty pharmacy requirements for specific medications.
• Reconcile copay card and foundation assistance payments and follow up on outstanding manufacturer reimbursements.
• Coordinate corrections and rebills with billing and the intake team, and feed findings back into the intake process so the same denial doesn't recur.
