This role ensures provider data is accurate, governed, compliant, and consistently propagated to claims, repricing, directories, portals, analytics, care navigation, vendors, and client-facing reporting. The Principal owns standards and controls for provider adds, deletes, terminations, demographic changes, network participation, contract attributes, effective dates, fee schedule references, product/tier applicability, and roster reconciliation. This position operates at a senior individual-contributor level: leading governance design, resolving complex data issues, strengthening claims-pricing defensibility, mentoring operational teams, and driving sustainable improvements across provider data intake, maintenance, quality, audit readiness, and downstream consumption. Position Responsibilities: • Lead enterprise provider-data governance for critical provider and contract fields, including NPI, TIN, taxonomy/specialty, locations, group/facility relationships, network status, effective/termination dates, product applicability, and contract references. • Own compliant processes for provider adds, deletes, changes, and terminations, including source documentation, approval controls, effective-date logic, exception handling, audit trail, and SLA oversight. • Manage and improve roster operations for contracted groups, facilities, ancillaries, direct contracts, COEs, high-performance networks, wrap networks, and other network arrangements. • Partner with Network Contracting, Product and Engineering teams and Third-Party vendors to translate contract terms, amendments, carve-outs, fee schedules, tiers, and reimbursement indicators into accurate provider data and pricing setup requirements. • Ensure accurate downstream propagation to claims, repricing, provider directories, member/provider portals, eligibility, care navigation, UM, analytics, stop-loss, client reporting, EDI/data feeds, and external vendors. • Design and run data-quality controls: completeness checks, duplicate detection, roster reconciliation, effective-date validation, contract-data alignment, exception reporting, and root-cause correction plans. • Serve as escalation point for high-impact issues involving claims pricing, network assignment, directory accuracy, access-to-care, provider payment, client implementation, or compliance exposure. • Maintain SOPs, data dictionaries, governance rules, change-control artifacts, intake templates, QA checklists, reconciliation standards, and management reporting. • Support audits, regulatory readiness, network adequacy/directory accuracy needs, NSA/balance-billing operations, and client commitments by producing defensible documentation and control evidence. • Mentor analysts/specialists, influence cross-functional operating practices, and lead continuous-improvement initiatives that increase data quality, speed, transparency, and accountability. Required Qualifications: • Bachelor’s degree in healthcare administration, business, information systems, analytics, or a related field • 7+ years of healthcare provider data, network operations, payer/TPA operations, claims configuration, provider relations, or healthcare data-governance experience. • Data stewardship, contract-data fluency, claims/network acumen, governance mindset, executive communication, root-cause problem solving, cross-functional leadership. • Advanced understanding of provider identifiers, provider hierarchies, roster management, contract data, network participation, effective dating, and downstream payer/TPA system impacts. • Demonstrated ability to govern provider adds/deletes/changes with strong controls, documentation, reconciliation, audit readiness, and issue-resolution discipline. • Strong knowledge of how provider data impacts claims pricing, repricing, member liability, provider directories, network access, client implementations, reporting, and vendor integrations. • Advanced Excel/data-analysis skills and comfort working with large datasets, exception reports, data feeds, workflow tools, and operational dashboards. • Ability to influence senior stakeholders across Network Contracting, Claims, IT, EDI/Data Engineering, Compliance, Legal, Provider Relations, Analytics, Client Implementation, and vendors. Preferred Qualifications: • Experience in a medical TPA, PPO/network vendor, self-funded employer/ASO, captive, direct-contracting, repricing, or health plan environment. • Experience with contract loading, fee schedules, claims-pricing logic, tiered networks, COEs, direct primary care, wrap networks, value-based arrangements, or provider directory/network adequacy processes. • Working knowledge of SQL, data warehouses, EDI/file feeds, provider master data tools, claims platforms, CRM/workflow platforms, or data visualization/reporting tools. • Experience building governance frameworks, data dictionaries, operating metrics, QA controls, and audit-ready documentation for provider/network data. • Relevant training/certification in healthcare operations, data governance, project management, Lean/Six Sigma, compliance, or analytics.
