AVP RCM Strategy & Analytics

Baylor Genetics advances precision diagnostics by delivering trusted insights that improve patient care and outcomes.
The AVP, RCM Strategy & Analytics establishes and leads a high impact strategy, analytics, and program management function that improves reimbursement performance, strengthens ASP predictability, and drives disciplined execution across Revenue Cycle Management (RCM) and Market Access priorities.

This leader brings structure to ambiguity, connects data from disparate sources into insights ready for decisions, and establishes operating rhythms that translate priorities into measurable progress. The role owns KR and KPI governance, dashboards, and executive reporting; proactively identifies risks (payer risk, ASP trends, coverage gaps); and provides PMO enablement to keep initiatives aligned, on time, and outcome driven.

Key Responsibilities / Duties and Responsibilities

Strategy, Prioritization & Operating Model Leadership

• Establish and continuously evolve a clear operating model for RCM strategy, analytics, and initiative execution (prioritization, decision rights, roles and responsibilities, and operating rhythms).
• Partner with senior leaders to align reimbursement priorities to enterprise goals (e.g., ASP, coverage, Medicaid expansion, cash) and ensure priorities are communicated clearly and translated into execution plans.
• Identify operational hotspots, execution risks, and bottlenecks; drive resolution and escalation across functions where needed.

Analytics, Dashboards and Executive Reporting (KR and KPI Governance)

• Own KR and KPI reporting, dashboards, and executive reporting to improve decision making and track payer performance end to end.
• Proactively flag payer risks, ASP trends, and coverage gaps and translate findings into clear executive level insights and recommended actions.
• Define and track key performance metrics and establish recurring reporting that surfaces trends, risks, and progress against goals.

Program Management Enablement (PMO) for RCM & Market Access

• Provide PMO support for RCM and Market Access initiatives to keep projects aligned, on time, and driving measurable improvement.
• Build and run core business forums (e.g., weekly scorecards, standups, monthly executive summaries) that reinforce accountability and execution discipline.
• Establish transparent action plans and scorecards that create shared visibility across stakeholders and accelerate delivery.

Data Governance, Claims and Configuration Analytics, and CPT Level Rigor

• Oversee the structuring, governance, and accessibility of reimbursement and claims datasets to enable consistent reporting and reduce operational risk.
• Drive analytics and governance across payer configuration and mapping, including mapping at the CPT level and authorization level, reporting standardization, and controls aligned to compliance needs.
• Ensure the organization can reliably analyze payer and CPT reimbursement combinations and monitor variance to protect ASP and reduce leakage.

AI and Automation Enablement and Vendor Partnership (as applicable)

• Identify opportunities to move from manual, fragmented workflows to more predictive and prioritized execution, particularly in denials, prior authorization, and follow up work, using AI and workflow intelligence where appropriate.
• Partner across functions to evaluate workflow, data integration, and compliance risks (data quality, explainability, adoption, and PHI and auditability) in any AI enabled approach.

People Leadership & Cross-Functional Influence

• Lead and develop a high performing Strategy & Analytics team that includes analytics and reporting as well as program management capability (team structure may include manager and analyst roles).
