About Pivotal Health

Pivotal Health is the leading technology platform that helps healthcare providers get paid fairly in an increasingly complex reimbursement landscape. Today, many providers face persistent underpayment from health insurance companies, despite delivering high-quality care. While processes like IDR (Independent Dispute Resolution) were designed to promote fairness, they’re often administrative-heavy, time-consuming, and difficult to navigate without the right tools. Pivotal Health combines software, data, and service into a seamlessly integrated, AI-driven platform that simplifies these complex reimbursement workflows.

We help providers efficiently dispute underpaid claims, reduce administrative burden, and recover the reimbursement they’re entitled to; without adding more work to already stretched teams. Our full-service IDR solution is just the starting point. We’re building solutions that enable providers to operate with clarity, control, and confidence across the reimbursement journey.

We’re looking for an IDR Analyst to support Pivotal’s healthcare dispute resolution workflows, including Independent Dispute Resolution (IDR) processes. In this role, you’ll manage dispute cases through the arbitration process, ensuring claims are reviewed, submitted, and tracked accurately. This role sits within a broader dispute operations team that owns both federal and state-level reimbursement disputes, and your assigned area may include federal IDR processes, state-specific dispute and arbitration processes, or both.

Regardless of focus, the work requires strong attention to detail and analytical thinking to evaluate eligibility, documentation, and case requirements. You’ll work closely with internal teams and external partners — such as IDREs (Independent Dispute Resolution Entity) for federal cases, or the relevant state arbitration entities and agencies for state cases — to ensure disputes meet the applicable regulatory guidelines and progress through the arbitration process successfully.

This is a great opportunity for someone with professional experience who enjoys detail-oriented operational work and wants to develop deep expertise in healthcare reimbursement and regulatory processes. If your focus is federal IDR, you’ll build fluency in our established workflows and steadily take on more independent judgment calls and a real say in how the process evolves. If your focus includes state-specific disputes, the bar is higher from the start: state programs vary widely, so you’ll need to independently research the relevant state laws, regulations, agency guidance, payer requirements, and arbitration procedures, figure out how they apply operationally, and turn that research into clear, reliable instructions and workflows the rest of the team can follow.

Either way, we’re looking for someone who stays curious, digs deeper when something doesn’t add up, and takes real ownership of how the process runs — in an industry where a single missing detail can delay a provider’s reimbursement.

• Evaluate dispute eligibility and documentation:
  Analyze claim information to ensure cases meet federal IDR or state-specific dispute requirements before submission.
• Research and interpret state regulatory requirements:
  For state-specific work, independently research state laws, regulations, agency guidance, payer requirements, and arbitration procedures; interpret how they apply operationally; and translate that research into clear, reliable instructions and workflows for the rest of the team.
• Own inbox and correspondence review:
  Monitor shared inboxes and respond to incoming emails from payors and IDR entities, tracking follow-ups and next steps for each case.
• Ensure accurate case closures:
  Confirm disputes are closed only when truly resolved, catching premature or missed closures before they affect reimbursement.
• Monitor arbitration timelines and correspondence:
  Track deadlines and review communications from health plans, arbitration entities, and internal teams to ensure cases progress appropriately.
• Maintain operational tracking and documentation:
  Update internal systems and…
