Job Description:

Systems Analyst Advisor - Commercial Reinsurance

Location: Hybrid1: This role requires associates be in the office 1-2 days per week, fostering collaboration and connectivity, while providing flexibility to support productivity and work-life balance.  This approach combines structured office engagement with the autonomy of virtual work, promoting a dynamic and adaptable workplace.  Alternate locations may be considered.

Please note that per our policy on hybrid/virtual work, candidates not within a reasonable commuting distance from the posting location(s) will not be considered for employment, unless an accommodation is granted as required by law.

The System Analyst Advisor is responsible for leading the end-to-end Commercial Reinsurance data and CMS submission process for Elevance Health. This role oversees the analysis, design, implementation, and continuous improvement of the Reinsurance reporting workflow, from identifying eligible claims through final CMS submissions and audit support.

The successful candidate will evaluate and redesign existing business processes, develop automated end-to-end solutions, and improve the efficiency, accuracy, and scalability of the Reinsurance program. This role requires working with multiple enterprise data sources—including claims systems, operational databases, and enterprise data warehouses—to ensure complete and accurate data is available for regulatory reporting.

As part of Elevance Health's data modernization strategy, this position will also support the migration of legacy SQL and SAS processes to Snowflake and other cloud-based technologies. The ideal candidate is a self-directed, innovative problem solver who takes ownership, drives process improvements, embraces automation, and independently develops technical solutions with minimal direction.

• Lead the end-to-end Commercial Reinsurance data and CMS submission process, ensuring timely, accurate, and compliant submissions.
• Evaluate, redesign, and optimize existing Reinsurance workflows to improve efficiency, scalability, automation, and data quality.

• Identify claims eligible for Commercial Reinsurance by analyzing claims, membership, and other enterprise data sources.
• Work across multiple data sources, including claims systems, operational applications, enterprise databases, and data warehouses, to support business and regulatory requirements.
• Develop, maintain, and optimize complex SQL and SAS programs for data extraction, validation, reconciliation, and regulatory reporting.
• Perform deep-dive analysis to investigate data discrepancies, identify root causes, and recommend sustainable solutions.
• Support CMS submissions, CMS inquiries, and federal audits through comprehensive data analysis and documentation.
• Support User Acceptance Testing (UAT) for enhancements, production releases, and projects impacting Reinsurance submissions.
• Analyze business and system changes, assess impacts to the Reinsurance process, and implement effective technical solutions.
• Support migration of legacy SQL and SAS processes to Snowflake and other modern cloud-based technologies.
• Collaborate with business partners, IT, and external stakeholders while independently leading analytical efforts and recommending technical solutions.
• Continuously identify opportunities to automate, modernize, and improve business processes and data workflows.
• Document business processes, technical designs, data flows, and operational procedures.

Minimum Requirements:

• Requires an BA/BS degree in Information Technology, Computer Science or related field of study and a minimum of 6 years experience in a variety of technologies, documenting requirements and/or building test cases; or any combination of education and experience, which would provide an equivalent background.

Preferred Skills, Capabilities, and Experiences:

• Experience supporting Commercial Reinsurance or CMS Reinsurance programs.
• Claims processing, claims data analysis, or healthcare claims experience is highly preferred.
• Experience identifying claims eligible for CMS regulatory programs.
• Experience supporting CMS submissions, CMS inquiries, and federal audits.
• Experience with Snowflake and cloud-based data warehouse technologies.
• Experience migrating SQL, SAS, or ETL processes to Snowflake, Python, Spark/Snowpark, or similar cloud platforms.
