The Billing Strategy & Systems Analyst at Natera will play a critical role in driving strategic initiatives and day-to-day operational insights across Revenue Cycle Management (RCM). As a seasoned subject matter expert (SME) in healthcare billing, payer eligibility, and reimbursement, this individual will serve as a bridge between data, process, and leadership—translating operational needs into intelligent billing strategies and scalable solutions. You will be deeply involved in data analytics, claims auditing, billing system configurations, and delivering data insights and reports. You’ll help optimize workflows, introduce new technologies, improve data pipelines, and lead configuration efforts for systems such as AdvancedMD, Salesforce, and EMRs. This role is ideal for a dynamic, self-directed expert who thrives in a fast-paced, data-driven environment and enjoys solving tough problems that impact the full claims lifecycle.

Requirements

  • Bachelor’s degree

Responsibilities

Data Analytics & Reporting

  • Write advanced SQL queries and work within Snowflake to pull, analyze, and interpret data from multiple sources for ad hoc and recurring requests.
  • Conduct complex data analyses across claim volumes to identify trends, pain points, and improvement opportunities.

  • Develop and deliver executive-level presentation decks to communicate findings, operational KPIs, and recommendations to leadership.

Workflow Auditing & Operational Strategy

  • Perform audits in systems like AdvancedMD and Salesforce to connect SOPs and workflows to real-world data behavior.
  • Identify workflow gaps and recommend improvements based on system configurations, audit results, and reimbursement outcomes.
  • Act as a strategic partner to leadership by “telling the story” through data — bridging operations and data insights to guide decision-making.

Revenue Cycle Subject Matter Expertise

  • Serve as the internal SME on RCM processes, particularly around eligibility, pre-registration, pre-access, payer policy, and reimbursement requirements.
  • Ensure billing workflows are set up to yield clean claims on the front end and maximize reimbursement on the back end.
