Your role includes managing a comprehensive database for cases, ensuring timely resolution, and maintaining compliance with established standards.

Assess the needs of healthcare providers and create action plans to proactively address potential delays in therapy. Coordinate the exchange of patient-related information with all relevant parties (e.g., patients, families, healthcare providers, insurance companies, and specialty pharmacies). Effectively manage a database that includes detailed information on individuals, their insurance coverage, approval statuses, ongoing requirements, and all interactions with patients and providers.


Stay informed about reimbursement processes, billing and coding nuances, insurance plans, payer trends, financial assistance programs, and alternative resources.

Assist in obtaining insurance approvals, denials, and appeals for therapies. Support patients and healthcare providers in processing applications for Copay Assistance/Reimbursement and Patient Assistance Programs. Help with the ordering and triaging of prescriptions for patients or healthcare providers. Provide education to patients and healthcare providers regarding insurance requirements, options, and limitations necessary to initiate therapy, as well as relevant disease and product information.

Act as the escalation point of contact for the Case Management team, guiding issues from receipt to resolution.

Lead training sessions on program specifics for new hires and conduct refresher training as needed. Collaborate with leadership on documentation updates for training materials and Standard Operating Procedures (SOPs).
