Are you a detail-oriented problem solver who thrives in the world of behavioral health billing and credentialing?  Do you get a strange thrill from reconciling reports, clearing denials, and navigating Medicaid regulations like a pro?  If so, we want you on our team!

As our Billing & Credentialing Specialist, you’ll be the behind-the-scenes hero ensuring accurate, timely billing and making sure our licensed providers are fully credentialed and compliant.  You’ll work with multiple systems, communicate with state agencies, and support our programs by being the go-to expert on everything from Medicaid to PNM provider enrollments.

  • Provide essential billing reports and reconciliations.
  • Serve as the subject matter expert on Medicaid billing configurations and best practices.
  • Attend monthly meetings with MCO’s and collaborative agencies.
  • Collaborate with IT, Accounting, and Program teams to ensure efficient workflows.
  • Stay on top of policy changes from the Ohio Department of Medicaid and other authorities.
  • Own the credentialing process—new hires, updates, renewals, CAQH enrollment and re-attestations.
  • Troubleshoot discrepancies or credentialing gaps that could impact billing.
  • Keep credentialing data clean and up-to-date in HR and EHR systems.
  • Be the expert on NPI number systems and external credentialing protocols.

  • Time and project management prowess
  • Financial savvy
  • Outstanding communication and customer service skills
  • Tech-savvy (MS Office Suite, including Excel and Teams)
  • Calm under billing-related pressure

🏢 Work Environment & Flexibility:

You’ll enjoy a hybrid schedule—a mix of remote and in-office days based on team needs. We foster a professional yet flexible environment where your work-life balance matters. Occasionally, you may be asked to lift items (up to 30 lbs) or stay a bit later for special projects or deadlines.
