Revenue Cycle Engagement Leader

Infinx•, (Multiple States)

6d•$100,000 - $130,000•Remote

About The Position

The Revenue Cycle Engagement Leader is a hands-on, deeply engaged operator who owns the success of their client engagements end-to-end. This is not a role for someone who views leadership as delegating tasks and monitoring status reports. We are looking for a leader who lives inside the work–who reads the data daily, anticipates problems before they surface on a client call, and drives solutions with urgency, precision, and grace. The ideal candidate combines elite analytical capability with deep Acute Care & Ambulatory (Technical & Professional Claims) Revenue Cycle expertise and the executive presence to stand in front of demanding client stakeholders and answer any question put to them. They remain composed and solution-oriented under pressure, absorb difficult client feedback without losing momentum, and consistently convert challenges into measurable results. They lead from the front–inspiring their team, modeling the standard, and holding the line on performance every day. This role reports directly to the Vice President of Acute Care Services. As a member of the Infinx Management Team, the Engagement Leader owns the daily operational health of their assigned clients and leads weekly executive-level meetings with client stakeholders, delivering credible status updates, escalating risks proactively, and presenting a clear, data-driven view of performance, root causes, and forward plans.

Certified Revenue Cycle Representative (CRCR) or equivalent industry certification preferred
Lean Six Sigma training and prior continuous improvement experience preferred
Prior P&L or client-account ownership experience preferred
Experience presenting to hospital CFOs, VPs of Revenue Cycle, or equivalent executive stakeholders preferred
Hands-on experience with Cerner RCM build and configuration, with a strong understanding of end-to-end revenue cycle workflows and the ability to advise clients on system setup, configuration decisions, and best practices
Demonstrated hands-on leadership of client engagments–not purely supervisory or administrative oversight
Deep working knowledge of acute care EHR systems, including Epic, Cerner, Meditech, and CPSI
Strong analytics and data-driven decision-making skills
Proficiency with Excel at an advanced level (pivots, lookups, complex formulas, structured analysis)
Expert-level PowerPoint and executive presentation skills–formal agendas and polished decks are the default for every client meeting
Proved track record of identifying cashflow risks early and executing corrective plans that produced measurable results
Experience leading and developing remote teams in a contact-center-style production environment
Outstanding organization and time management; able to run multiple client engagements and AR portfolios simultaneously without dropping detail
Willingness to work beyond standard hours when client situations require it

Nice To Haves

Hands-on ownership: Treats every client engagement as their own business. Is not satisfied reading dashboards but reviews work queues, listens to calls, opens accounts, and verifies that what is being reported matches what is actually happening.
Anticipatory problem-solving: Spots leading indicators of trouble–shifts in denial rates, aging buckets, payer behavior, staffing productivity–and acts on them before they escalate. Does no wait for a client to raise an issue to address it.
Deep domain expertise: Commands a working knowledge of acute care hospital revenue cycle operations: AR follow-up, denial management, charge capture, payment posting, credit balance resolution, underpayment recovery, and the end-to-end lifecycle of a claim across both facility and professional billing.
Payer fluency: Expert-level understanding of Medicare IPPS and OPPS, Medicaid, Tricare, VA, and commercial payer behavior, including contract interpretation, appeal pathways, and reimbursement methodology (DRG, APC, EAPG, fee schedules, etc.)
Analytical rigor: Uses revenue cycle data to drive decisions, not to decorate slides. Comfortable building, interrogating, and defending models, pivot analyses, and trend work. Can explain every number on every slide and trace it back to its source.
Executive presence under pressure: Presents with clarity and confidence to demanding C-suite and VP-level client stakeholders. Handles pointed, skeptical, or harsh questioning without defensiveness. Stays composed, solution-oriented, and credible.
Strategic thinking: Understands the correlation between staffing, productivity, net cash collected, avoidable write-offs, and the client's bottom line. Makes resource and prioritization decisions with that full picture in view.
Process discipline: Creates, reviews, updates, and implements process improvements that reduce avoidable write-offs and measurably lift performance. Holds team members accountable through clearly defined standards and expectations.
Communication and de-escalation: Communicates flawlessly in writing and verbally. De-escalates client, team, and peer conflict with professionalism. Delivers difficult messages directly while preserving the relationship.
Adaptability: Adjusts to shifts in direction, priority, or scope and executes through change without losing momentum.
Team leadership: Inspires and develops remote staff in a high-volume, high contact environment. Drives performance without burning people out.
