This work will include analyzing provider network data, claims data and outputs from the Surest provider performance evaluation pipeline. This position will develop materials that support Surest work with external entities such as demonstrating Surest capabilities for regulators as a part of Surest fully-insured expansion and supporting claims audits for self-insured ASO clients.

  • Work with Surest and other UHC teams supporting client audits of Surest claim payment approach and accuracy
  • Develop tools that support getting stakeholder and regulator alignment for Surest fully-insured expansion into additional states
  • Support responding to custom analytic requests and questions from clients and other stakeholders
  • Assist with the preparation and delivery of clear and concise communications for various internal and external stakeholders


You’ll be rewarded and recognized for your performance in an environment that will challenge you and give you clear direction on what it takes to succeed in your role as well as provide development for other roles you may be interested in.

Required Qualifications:

  • 4+ years of business or data analysis experience
  • 2+ years working healthcare administrative data (e.g. claims, enrollment, provider directory)
  • 2+ years working with relational databases using SQL or Python
  • Intermediate level experience with Excel and developing financial modeling

Preferred Qualifications:

  • Experience with SQL and relational database pipelines and tools (Databricks and Ascend)
  • Experience with Excel and developing business intelligence reporting to support strategy development
  • Knowledge and experience in a healthcare environment with HIPAA requirements
  • Working knowledge of clinical data domains and code sets (CPT, ICD, DRG, etc.)
  • Working knowledge of provider directory data
  • Deep understanding of health care industry concepts (encounters, episodes, members, cost of care, benefit administration, etc.)
  • Proximity to San Francisco (CA), Minneapolis (MN) or New York City (NY)

Soft Skill Requirements:

  • Ability to distill multiple concepts and identify key opportunities for action in an innovating environment that includes ambiguity and change
  • Ability to manage multiple tasks and priorities in a highly dynamic environment, strong problem-solving skills, exceptional attention to detail
  • Ability to communicate effectively, excellent interpersonal and communication skills, both written and verbal
