Job Overview

\n

We are seeking a Medicaid Billing Specialist with experience in Illinois Medicaid systems to join our Lincolnwood office operations. This role centers on four platforms (MEDI, ABE, RFMS, and PCC) and the income liability workflow that connects them.

Experienced MEDI users can work remotely or hybrid, while candidates newer to MEDI will start with on-site support.
