Here, you will find a culture guided by diversity and inclusion, talented peers, comprehensive benefits and career development opportunities. Come make an impact on the communities we serve as you help us advance health equity on a global scale. Join us to start Caring. Connecting. Growing together.
About the Role:
As a Fortune 5 business, we’re one of the world’s leading healthcare companies. There are no limits here on the resources you’ll have or the challenges you’ll encounter. We have been supporting global healthcare systems from Ireland and the UK for more than 20 years, building a dynamic and diverse team of more than 2,100 talented individuals. With a continued record of growth and stability, we’re on the constant lookout for fresh talent to join our expanding teams.
We’re seeking a visionary and strategic leader to join our team as the Director, Business Process and Analysis (Quality & Risk) – Clinical Solutions. You’ll play a pivotal role in shaping the future of our Risk Adjustment HCC coding programme across all regions. This is a unique opportunity for a highly motivated individual to leverage data insights, drive continuous improvement, and ensure the successful execution of quality initiatives on a global scale.
We’re looking for someone who has a strong business process improvement mindset, the ability to leverage data to improve processes, and some experience in environments focusing on elements of quality or risk management. The successful individual will receive extensive training on specific healthcare coding and risk adjustment processes.
Careers with Optum offer flexible work arrangements and individuals who live and work in the Republic of Ireland will have the opportunity to split their monthly work hours between our Dublin or Letterkenny office and telecommuting from a home-based office in a hybrid work model.
Primary Responsibilities:
All telecommuters will be required to adhere to the United Health Group’s Telecommuter Policy.
At United Health Group, our mission is to help people live healthier lives and make the health system work better for everyone. We believe everyone–of every race, gender, sexuality, age, location and income–deserves the opportunity to live their healthiest life. Today, however, there are still far too many barriers to good health which are disproportionately experienced by people of color, historically marginalised groups and those with lower incomes. We are committed to mitigating our impact on the environment and enabling and delivering equitable care that addresses health disparities and improves health outcomes — an enterprise priority reflected in our mission.
Diversity creates a healthier atmosphere: Optum is an Equal Employment Opportunity employer and all qualified applicants will receive consideration for employment without regard to gender, civil status, family status, sexual orientation, disability, religion, age, race, and membership of the Traveller community, or any other characteristic protected by law.
