  • Design Data Model: Collaborate with engineering teams to define data models, schemas, and formats for internal data representation and storage.
  • Data Integration:
  • Develop Integration Strategies: Create and maintain strategies for using FHIR to exchange claims and clinical data between different healthcare entities.
  • Mapping and Transformation: Build data mappings, transformations, and data exchange protocols to support interoperability initiatives.
  • Standards Compliance:

  • Provide Guidance: Serve as a subject matter expert and offer guidance to internal teams to ensure they follow FHIR standards when developing systems.
  • Quality Assurance:
  • Testing: Conduct rigorous testing and validation of FHIR implementations to guarantee data accuracy, security, and compliance with regulatory requirements.
  • Education and Training:
  • Training and Support: Provide training and support to internal teams and stakeholders on FHIR standards, best practices, and the use of FHIR-based tools.
  • Documentation and Reporting:
  • Comprehensive Documentation: Maintain detailed documentation of FHIR implementations, including data models, data dictionaries, and interface specifications.

What are our must haves:

  • Hands-on experience with SQL syntax is necessary for developing SQL queries for data retrieval and analytics, including knowledge of database structures for working with large datasets.
  • Capability to perform gap analysis on IG versions and make recommendations for updates to the data transformation process
  • Experience creating and maintaining documentation related to data standards
  • Experience translating technical data requirements to internal and external stakeholders for implementation
  • Practical knowledge of healthcare data transformation best practices
  • Experience with the provider and payer healthcare space
  • Strong execution skills, valuing iteration and rapid delivery, with an obsession for detail even when managing multiple projects concurrently
  • Effective project management skills to oversee multiple initiatives running simultaneously
  • Hands-on and self-starting approach, enjoying taking initiative and driving projects
  • Excellent communication and relationship-building skills, enabling effective communication both internally and externally, and the ability to navigate complex relationships to achieve project goals

What are our nice-to-haves:

  • HL7 FHIR and/or Clinical Informatics Certification
  • Understanding of CMS interoperability requirements for compliance.
