Description
Health Data Analytics Project Manager.
Estrada Consulting, Inc. | Public sector health and human services client | Remote, US based | $70 to $100 per hour.
About the role:
ECI is looking for a project manager to lead a one-year data analytics engagement for a state health and human services agency. You will run the schedule, deliverables and governance sessions, keep State leadership informed, and coordinate a small team of analysts, a Medicaid subject matter expert and a data architect.
About the project:
Estrada Consulting, Inc. (ECI) is assembling the team for a cloud-based data analytics capability for a state Medicaid-funded developmental disabilities program. The program holds claims, electronic visit verification, eligibility, provider, service plan and self-directed services fiscal data, and needs an integrated, explainable way to identify anomalies, emerging financial risk and opportunities for program improvement. The capability uses three tiers of analysis (rules-based checks, statistical comparison and relationship analysis), and every result is reviewed by State staff before any action. ECI has already built a working prototype on synthetic data.
Responsibilities:
- Build and maintain the integrated project schedule, deliverable plan and resource plan.
- Lead weekly operational tracking sessions, biweekly or monthly workstream reviews and executive oversight briefings.
- Prepare status reports, including material risks, bottlenecks, governance issues and corrective action plans.
- Manage risks, issues and change control, and coordinate data access with State program, Medicaid and partner staff.
- Coordinate quarterly reporting inputs and the review of significant findings with State subject matter experts before any action.
- Plan documentation, knowledge transfer and transition so State staff can operate and extend the capability.
Required qualifications:
- Three to five years or more managing projects involving data analytics, healthcare, Medicaid or other health and human services programs.
- Proficiency in project planning, schedule and deliverable management, resource coordination and stakeholder communication.
- Experience running status reporting, risk and issue management and change control with public sector clients.
- US based and able to pass a background check before access to protected health data.
Preferred qualifications:
- PMP, CAPM or equivalent project management certification.
- Bachelor's degree in project management, business administration, public administration, information technology or a related field.
- Medicaid, HCBS, developmental disabilities or program integrity projects.
- Stakeholder engagement and audit interview experience.
- Experience leading analytics, data warehouse or Power BI projects.
Terms:
Estimated effort: About 1,550 hours over a one-year contract, roughly 30 hours per week.
Work arrangement: Remote. All team members must be US based. Work follows the client's business hours, 8:00 AM to 5:00 PM Eastern, with regular video meetings on Eastern time and occasional on-site visits if the client asks.
Duration: One year, contingent on contract award. The expected start is the first quarter of 2027.
Rate: $70 to $100 per hour, depending on experience.
Other requirements: Candidates must pass the client's background check and sign confidentiality and HIPAA agreements before access to program data. The candidate's name and resume will be included in ECI's proposal, and the candidate signs a letter of intended commitment.
