Senior Configuration Quality Audit Analyst

Personify Health•Tempe, AZ

8d•$70,000 - $83,000

About The Position

Every claim that runs through our system tells a real story — a member getting the care they need, a provider getting paid correctly, a client trusting that their plan is doing what it's supposed to do. This role is the safeguard behind that trust: catching configuration errors before they become member complaints, compliance gaps, or costly rework. When benefit plans, fee schedules, and adjudication rules are set up right, claims process faster, auto-adjudication rates climb, and clients stop worrying and start relying on us. The audits and root-cause fixes this person drives don't just clean up today's errors — they prevent tomorrow's. Get this right, and the whole claims operation runs smoother, faster, and more accurately, directly moving the needle on the outcomes clients and members actually feel.
