We’re looking for a highly motivated, detail-oriented analyst to join our Surgical and Cardiovascular Services leadership team at Dell Seton Medical Center at The University of Texas. This role will directly support revenue integrity and performance improvement across the Operating Room, Cath Lab, and Endoscopy by owning charge capture workflows, reconciling billing documentation, and delivering data that drives change.
