Qualifications - Bachelor's degree in a STEM field, or 4 years commensurate experience. - 10+ years of quantitative analysis in the healthcare industry. - Experience with medical economics, corporate strategy, or a related analytics-driven leadership role. - Experience with health insurance / payer analytics, with an understanding of medical claims data (e.g., CPT/HCPCS, ICD-10, DRGs) and standard healthcare industry data sources.
