Job Description
Insight Global is looking for a Follow‑Up Representative to support a large hospital system in the Maryland/DC area. This person will support the Denials Appeals & Performance (DAP) team, a centralized hospital denial group supporting 10 hospitals across the Maryland/DC region.

Follow‑Up Reps will manage a mixed inpatient and outpatient inventory, working with primarily commercial payers and MCOs.

• Document all follow‑up actions clearly in the appropriate system
• Identify cases with insufficient or unclear documentation and escalate appropriately
• Track payer responses, timelines, and next steps
• Support rebilling or resubmission efforts when required

• Collaborate with:

○ Other follow‑up representatives
○ Leadership as needed
• Participate in:
