• Monitor revenue cycle KPIs and operational dashboards, including cash posted, A/R days, aged A/R, DNFB, CFB, clean claim rate, claim edits, denial trends, charge lag, registration quality, payment posting, and reconciliation metrics.
• Review daily market and functional performance trends, identify off-track areas, and escalate critical risks to the Director or appropriate leadership owner for resolution.
• Partner with operational leaders to validate work queue movement, assigned inventory completion, payer follow-up, denial resolution, billing correction activity, payment posting, account compilation, and account reconciliation.
• Compile account-level detail, issue summaries, payer trends, and supporting documentation needed to prepare CommonSpirit Market Directors for payer Joint Operating Committee meetings and targeted payer escalation discussions.
• Work directly with CommonSpirit Market Directors to support payer JOC meeting preparation, execution, follow-up, and issue mitigation activities designed to remove barriers, reduce payer friction, and improve cash acceleration.
• Support documentation, prioritization, and resolution of issues surfaced through ServiceNow, functional huddles, vendor meetings, operational dashboards, and local leadership escalation channels.
• Reinforce compliance with standard revenue cycle workflows, payer requirements, hospital policies, HIPAA, regulatory expectations, and approved CommonSpirit operating procedures.
• Coordinate with Patient Access, HIM, Coding/CDI, Revenue Integrity, Billing, A/R Follow-Up, Denials, NOA, Cash Posting, Credit Balance, Contract Compliance, and Finance leaders to address dependencies and operational gaps.
• Prepare executive-ready updates for Director review, including prioritized issues, root causes, mitigation plans, action items, owners, due dates, and next-day priorities.
• Provide operational presence during go-live and post-live stabilization by engaging with market teams, validating process adoption, and ensuring barriers are promptly routed to the appropriate owner.
• Support development and refinement of job aids, SOPs, reporting expectations, escalation pathways, meeting materials, and communication tools needed to stabilize revenue cycle operations.
• Demonstrate sound judgment, clear communication, operational urgency, and the ability to manage multiple priorities in a complex, multi-market hospital revenue cycle environment.

Manager Operational Expectations:

• Maintain a visible operational presence with CommonSpirit market and facility leaders, especially during transition and stabilization periods, while escalating strategic issues to the Director.
• Promote proactive issue identification, transparent communication, timely escalation, and disciplined follow-through on assigned action items.
• Partner with operational owners to confirm work is progressing in the host systems and that reporting reconciles to assigned worklists and source-of-truth data.
• Ensure payer JOC action items are documented, assigned, tracked, and escalated as needed to support issue resolution, improved account movement, and measurable cash improvement.
• Review daily productivity, quality, and inventory movement and escalate when expected progress is not achieved.
• Support a collaborative operating culture that reinforces accountability, urgency, mission alignment, and respectful partnership with CommonSpirit stakeholders.

What You Will Need:

• Bachelor’s degree and a minimum of 8 years of relevant healthcare revenue cycle experience; relevant experience may be substituted for formal education or advanced degree where appropriate.
• Hospital revenue cycle management or supervisory experience in a provider, health system, CBO, shared services, outsourcing, consulting, or managed services environment.
• Demonstrated experience supporting complex revenue cycle operations, transition support, operational stabilization, cross-functional issue resolution, and leadership communication.
• Strong working knowledge of hospital billing, A/R follow-up, denials, payment posting, cash reconciliation, revenue integrity, HIM/coding dependencies, NOA, patient access, payer escalation, and revenue cycle KPI management.
• Ability to support onsite or hybrid market engagement as required by the CommonSpirit operating model, including travel or onsite presence during critical transition and stabilization periods.
