Job Description
Bring your strengths to Wellmark as a Medical Policy Analyst! You will be responsible for the research, analysis, development, maintenance, coordination and documentation of medical policies for all products of Wellmark Inc. You will do this through evidence-based research and analysis of emerging and existing medical technologies and will contribute to ensuring Wellmark's members receive appropriate evidence-based health care services. You will achieve credibility by continuously improving research methodologies in the decision-making process to ensure Wellmark Medical Policies are grounded in evidence-based healthcare.
You would be a top candidate if you bring strong knowledge of commercial health insurer systems, medical terminology, and current healthcare issues. Your ability to thoroughly research and comprehend large volumes of clinical literature and guidelines allows you to draw clear, evidence-based conclusions and make concise policy recommendations. You excel at communicating complex, and sometimes conflicting, healthcare information in a way that’s easy to understand—both in writing and when verbally reviewing with cross-functional teams. Your strong time management and organizational skills help you juggle multiple priorities with precision and attention to detail. You’re a self-starter who thrives both independently and in collaboration with internal teams.
