Requirements

7+ years of product management experience, with a demonstrated track record of not only implementing healthcare technology best practices but continuously improving upon them; proven success shipping products that drive measurable financial and operational outcomes.
Deep expertise in healthcare revenue cycle management — provider-side, payer-side, or health tech — with hands-on knowledge of urgent care or ambulatory RCM workflows including walk-in patient registration, real-time insurance eligibility verification, CPT/ICD-10 coding, charge capture, claim scrubbing, clearinghouse integrations, payer adjudication rules, denial management, and patient collections.
Demonstrated success in directing and executing complex product management initiatives across cross-functional teams; experience managing multi-product RCM portfolios and translating operational pain points into scalable technology solutions.
Strong technical and operations acumen: ability to understand the implications of EHR/EMR integrations, clearinghouse connections, payer APIs, data quality, and back-end services on RCM workflow efficiency, claim acceptance rates, and reimbursement timelines.
Fluency in RCM KPIs and financial performance metrics, including net collection rate, days in accounts receivable (AR), first-pass claim acceptance rate, denial rate, cost-to-collect, and patient collection rate; proven ability to connect product investments directly to financial outcomes and present ROI to executive leadership.
Knowledge of HIPAA, HITECH, and applicable Medicare/Medicaid billing regulations as they relate to urgent care settings; ability to translate regulatory changes into product requirements and compliance controls.
Undergraduate degree in business, engineering, statistics, economics, or healthcare administration required; MBA, MIS, or MS in a related field strongly preferred.
Clear passion for WellNow’s mission of making quality urgent care accessible — and the ability to identify strategic opportunities for product innovation within healthcare revenue cycle and patient financial experience.
Proven skills to collaborate with cross-functional teams and influence stakeholders at all levels — from billing specialists to C-suite executives — to drive product decisions and adoption.
Entrepreneurial with a strong bias toward action and results; self-directed and able to solve complex RCM business challenges, manage shifting payer requirements, and prioritize work in a fast-paced, multi-site healthcare environment.
Ability to lead without direct authority, building credibility and trust across billing operations, IT, clinical, finance, and compliance teams across TAG’s multi-brand organization.
Ability to conduct own analyses and leverage both qualitative and quantitative insights — including claims data, denial analytics, AR aging reports, and patient satisfaction data — to inform product strategy and roadmap prioritization.
Drive to become the recognized subject matter expert in RCM product management within TAG, continuously deepening domain expertise and sharing knowledge across the broader product organization.
