   Wayspring

   Sep 2022 — Present

   I provide analytics expertise to all aspects of our company and work on special projects focused around operational solutions improvement within the Substance Use Disorder population. I directly analyze claims data, particularly Medicaid, for over 3 Million members using SQL and Power BI, and provide insights into member utilization and opportunities for our company to improve member outcomes. I lead analytics cross-departmental collaboration to foster a better understanding of the company as a whole so that the broader analytics team can provide more effective insights. I directly manage the analytics for our new client opportunities that have led to us successfully signing four risk-based Medicaid contracts valued at over $100 Million and multiple fee-for-service contracts. I also provide consulting for HR Analytics, Operations Efficiency and KPI Tracking, and Financial Planning and Analysis. I also run regular coaching sessions for analysts throughout the company on topics including: Claims Data Analysis, Medical Utilization, Readmission tracking, Power BI Best Practices, Substance Use Disorder identification, and Data Modeling.
