About the Opportunity

I’m hiring a Revenue Cycle Manager for a mission-driven healthcare organization that provides primary care, behavioral health, and dental services to a diverse and largely underserved patient population. This is a newly reactivated, direct-hire role created to support an upcoming EMR transition and to serve as the internal point person for an outsourced billing partner.

This position is ideal for a hands-on revenue cycle leader who understands the operational and regulatory complexities of an FQHC environment and enjoys building structure, improving workflows, and coaching staff through change.

The role is fully onsite, with occasional travel to other clinic locations for training and collaboration.

What You’ll Be Responsible For

This role oversees day-to-day revenue cycle performance while acting as a bridge between internal teams and external billing partners. Key responsibilities include:

• Serving as the primary liaison between clinic leadership and the outsourced revenue cycle vendor
• Managing follow-up on unpaid, underpaid, or denied claims across medical, dental, and behavioral health services
• Monitoring denial trends, adjustments, resubmissions, and payer portal activity
• Identifying recurring issues, workflow gaps, and escalation needs—and driving resolution
• Ensuring correct insurance selection and setup at the front desk; partnering with clinical teams to reduce avoidable errors
• Providing training and guidance to staff and providers across multiple sites
• Overseeing two junior revenue cycle team members, including coaching and day-to-day support
• Maintaining compliance with FQHC-specific requirements, including sliding fee scales, federal poverty guidelines, reimbursement rules, and policy updates
• Supporting leadership during an EMR transition, including coordination between current and incoming systems

Required Experience & Qualifications

Must-Haves:

• Prior experience as a Revenue Cycle Manager or Revenue Cycle Supervisor (typically 3–5 years)
• Hands-on experience in an FQHC setting, ideally supporting primary care, behavioral health, and/or dental services
• Previous people-management or team-lead experience
• Strong understanding of claims management, payer follow-up, and reimbursement workflows

Preferred (Strong Plus):

• Spanish fluency
• Experience working with Medicaid-heavy patient populations
• Background updating or maintaining FQHC reimbursement or financial policies

Systems & Tools

• Current EMR: Athena
• Incoming EMR: eClinicalWorks (planned go-live late June)
• Comfort navigating payer portals and standard revenue cycle reporting tools is expected

Education

• Bachelor’s degree preferred
• Equivalent experience, certifications, or relevant training may be considered in lieu of a degree

Why This Role Stands Out

• Key leadership role during a major EMR transition
• High visibility and direct partnership with revenue cycle leadership
• Opportunity to shape workflows and improve financial performance in a community-focused care model
• Stable weekday schedule with no nights or weekends
