Optimizing Healthcare Technology
We are a global organization delivering care, enabled by technology to help millions of people live healthier lives.
About the Role:
We aim to make healthcare work better for everyone by hiring the best and brightest. Our ecosystem of investment and innovation in Ireland is constantly growing to support future healthcare needs.
Our teams drive the development and adaptation of cutting-edge technologies to propel healthcare forward in a more inclusive way. With our presence across all aspects of health, we leverage advanced tools, AI, data science, and innovative approaches to improve the healthcare system for all stakeholders – payers, providers, and patients.
The current Revenue Cycle Management (RCM) process is complex due to opaque and payer-specific adjudication rules, resulting in significant waste and inefficiency. Optum Insight is committed to delivering new technology and processes to enhance the RCM workflow using advances in Gen AI and other state-of-the-art technology, benefiting all stakeholders involved in the healthcare ecosystem.
