Story Behind the Need
What is the purpose of this team? What is driving this need? (ex. Backfill for FTE or CW, new project, business growth) Describe the surrounding team (team culture, work environment, etc.) & key projects. Do you have any additional upcoming hiring needs, or is this request part of a larger hiring initiative?	The purpose of this team is to build authorizations for provider reconsideration claims received through CenPas. Once the authorizations are created, they are routed to our clinical partners for review and determination. This is a fast-paced, multifaceted team that manages a high-volume inventory and plays a critical role in supporting timely claim reconsideration processing. Additional team members are needed to help manage the growing authorization build workload, maintain service levels, and support operational efficiency.

This fast-paced role requires team members to navigate multiple applications, research claim details, and accurately create authorizations while managing a high-volume workload. Performance expectations include completing a minimum of 24 authorization builds per day, averaging 3 claims per hour, while maintaining quality and accuracy standards.
