- Conduct timely evaluations of escalated cases, including initial denials, peer-to-peers (including giving feedback on alternate treatment based on medical necessity criteria and evidence-based research) and first-level appeals, within required turnaround times. Clearly and accurately document all communication and decision-making in Oscar workflow tools, ensuring a member could easily reference and understand decisions.
- Maintain oversight for quality improvement and medical management services pertaining to behavioral health at Oscar, including participation in relevant committees and sub-committees of the Quality Improvement (QI) program.
