Why this was classified this way

  • contractor

Eligibility, licensing, and location restrictions can change. Always confirm details on the source posting before applying.

Why this is worth applying to

Worth applying for clinicians with strong Medicaid data, SQL/Python, and payment policy experience; not a realistic entry point for clinicians without hands-on analytics or consulting exposure.

Who should apply

Clinicians with health informatics, Medicaid/payer, population health, quality measurement, or policy analytics experience who can independently write SQL/Python and translate policy into data specifications.

CV angle

Frame real clinical and healthcare experience around Medicaid populations, quality measures, payment models, data documentation, and cross-functional policy translation; highlight concrete SQL/Python projects, analytic deliverables, and any payer, public health, or informatics work without inventing data or consulting experience.

Skills to highlight

  • SQL
  • Python
  • Medicaid and T-MSIS/TAF data
  • Payment model implementation
  • Attribution and payment calculations
  • Quality measurement
  • Data quality assessment
  • Policy-to-data specification translation
  • Documentation and stakeholder communication

Role summary

Supports the CMS Innovation Center LEAD model by analyzing Medicaid T-MSIS/TAF data, translating policy into data specifications and code, and implementing attribution, payment calculations, and quality measurement for a national healthcare consulting firm.
