Screen complaints against defined jurisdiction categories and flag the ones requiring notification to the Agency within two business days.

Enter and maintain complaint records accurately in the Government's Technical Assistance Inquiry System (TAIS).

Contact complainants for information missing from a filing and follow up until you have what is needed.

Contact health plans by telephone and pre-approved e-mail templates, logging every contact and response.

Keep complainants informed on unresolved cases and escalate a case that is not moving before it ages.

Correct data errors in existing records and support recurring reporting to the Agency.

High school diploma or equivalent.

One year or more of data entry, case processing, claims, customer service, or administrative support experience. Health plan, medical billing, or federal case-processing experience is a strong plus.

Comfort working in a case management or records system and typing accurately at volume.

Clear written and telephone communication. You will be speaking with medical billing offices and health plan representatives.

Ability to be reliably on-site in downtown Washington, DC.

U.S. person status, and the ability to obtain and maintain a favorable federal suitability determination (Minimum Background Investigation / Trusted Workforce 2.0 moderate). No work may begin before that determination is favorable.
