About the role:

As a Consulting Manager, Healthcare Business Transformation, you will make an impact by leading a comprehensive assessment of enterprise Long-Term Services and Supports (LTSS) operations, identifying opportunities to improve process efficiency, system interoperability, data integrity, and financial performance.

In this role, you will:

Lead end-to-end assessment and documentation of LTSS business processes across authorization, claims, provider, member, and financial workflows.

Analyze interactions between Pega, QNXT, and related healthcare platforms to identify process, integration, and data flow gaps.

Evaluate authorization-to-claims transaction integrity, data mappings, and operational controls to identify root causes of processing issues and financial leakage.

Facilitate stakeholder workshops, discovery sessions, and executive presentations to align business and technology teams on findings and recommendations.

Develop actionable remediation roadmaps, business cases, risk assessments, and transformation strategies that improve operational performance and reduce business risk.

What you need to have to be considered:

Bachelor's degree or equivalent professional experience in Healthcare Administration, Information Systems, Business, or a related field.

8+ years of experience in healthcare consulting, business transformation, program management, or healthcare operations.

Strong experience with QNXT and healthcare payer platforms, including claims, benefits, enrollments, and authorization workflows.

Experience working with Pega-based healthcare workflows, care management, or authorization management processes.

Proven expertise in healthcare process analysis, stakeholder management, business requirements, and current-state/future-state process mapping.

Experience conducting system integration reviews, data lineage assessments, reconciliation analysis, and business impact evaluations.

Strong communication and executive presentation skills with the ability to influence stakeholders across business and technology organizations.

Experience creating executive-level deliverables, recommendations, remediation roadmaps, and transformation strategies.

These will help you stand out:

Experience supporting Molina Healthcare or other Medicaid and LTSS-focused healthcare organizations.

Knowledge of healthcare claims processing, financial workflows, payment integrity, and leakage analysis.

Experience leading enterprise assessments involving interoperability, data governance, and technology modernization initiatives.

Familiarity with healthcare regulatory requirements, managed care operations, and value-based care environments.

Experience with business architecture, process mining, workflow optimization, or healthcare transformation consulting engagements.
