This role includes enrollment at both the group/entity level and individual-provider level, including adding physicians and nurse practitioners to existing Medicaid groups.
We are looking for someone who is highly organized, persistent, and proactive — someone who will actively follow applications, resolve deficiencies, contact Medicaid agencies and payer enrollment teams, and make sure applications do not stall.
Key Responsibilities
- Prepare and submit Medicaid enrollment applications for healthcare organizations/groups and individual providers.
- Add physicians, nurse practitioners, and other clinicians to existing Medicaid groups.
- Manage applications across multiple states and Medicaid enrollment portals.
- Track each application from submission through final approval.
- Monitor application status and proactively follow up on outstanding or delayed applications.
- Contact state Medicaid agencies and enrollment departments to resolve application issues.
- Respond quickly to requests for additional information, corrections, or documentation.
- Identify dependencies between group enrollment and individual-provider enrollment.
- Maintain accurate provider information, including NPI, taxonomy, practice locations, licensure information, and required supporting documentation.
- Manage Medicaid revalidations, renewals, and enrollment updates.
- Maintain a clear enrollment tracker showing status, outstanding requirements, next action, and follow-up date.
- Escalate enrollment issues with a clear explanation of the problem and recommended next steps.
- Support Medicaid managed-care enrollment when required after state Medicaid approval.

- Strong attention to detail and organizational skills.
- Comfortable calling Medicaid agencies and payer enrollment departments to resolve issues.
- Ability to independently manage multiple applications across providers and states.
- Strong written and verbal communication skills.
- Ability to work independently in a remote environment.
