NYREACH is a community-based organization dedicated to preventing disease and improving quality of life in underserved New York City communities. As a contracted Health-Related Social Needs (HRSN) service provider under New York State's 1115 Waiver (NYHER) Social Care Network (SCN) program, NYREACH delivers HRSN screenings, social care navigation, and food and nutrition services — including medically tailored meals and healthy grocery boxes provided in partnership with subcontracted vendors such as Epicured and Rx Diet to eligible Medicaid members.
The Financial Analyst is responsible for the full financial lifecycle of NYREACH's 1115 waiver-funded SCN programs. This includes managing claims and reimbursement for HRSN screenings, navigation, and nutrition/food services; reconciling and overseeing incoming payments from SCN Lead Entities; and processing accurate, timely payments to downstream subcontractors including Rx Diet and Epicured. The Financial Analyst ensures all financial operations comply with the NYS Department of Health (DOH) SCN Operations Manual, regional SCN fee schedules, Medicaid billing requirements, and NYREACH's contracts with Lead Entities.
Responsibilities
Revenue Cycle & Claims Management
• Oversee end-to-end billing and claims submission for all reimbursable SCN services: HRSN screenings (AHC tool), eligibility assessments, social care navigation, and enhanced nutrition services (medically tailored meals, food prescription/grocery boxes, pantry stocking, nutrition counseling).
• Ensure services are documented and billed in accordance with the SCN Lead Entity IT platform requirements, regional HRSN fee schedules, and closed-loop referral documentation standards.
• Track claim status, resolve denials and rejections, manage resubmissions, and minimize revenue leakage.

• Maintain aging reports for outstanding Lead Entity receivables and escalate delayed payments per contract terms.

• Prepare monthly revenue reconciliation reports by Lead Entity, service line, and program.
Subcontractor Payment Administration

• Ensure timely, accurate payment to subcontractors consistent with subcontract terms and pass-through requirements.
• Reconcile subcontractor invoices against Lead Entity reimbursements to protect program margin and flag variances.
• Maintain vendor files, W-9s, subcontract agreements, rate schedules, and payment records for audit readiness.
Budgeting, Reporting & Compliance
• Develop and manage program budgets for all 1115 waiver-funded activities; produce monthly budget-to-actual variance analysis for leadership.
• Prepare financial reports required by Lead Entities, NYS DOH, and funders; support cost reporting and any required attestations.
• Maintain internal controls, segregation of duties, and documentation standards suitable for Medicaid program integrity reviews and OMIG audits.
• Ensure compliance with Medicaid good-standing requirements, HIPAA (in coordination with compliance staff), and applicable federal/state grant and waiver rules.
• Support annual audits, single audits (if applicable), and funder monitoring visits.
Financial Operations & Leadership
• Manage cash flow forecasting across a reimbursement-based revenue model with multiple payers and vendors.
• Improve and document finance workflows connecting the SCN IT/referral platform, billing, accounting system, and AP.
