Position Summary

The Epic Program Manager owns Alteva’s operating footprint inside client Epic environments, ensuring Alteva’s Operations teams can deliver coding, billing, A/R, and IDR services effectively when that work is performed in, or depends on, a client’s Epic system. This role manages access, security roles, workqueues, routing, and reporting within client Epic instances, and serves as Alteva’s primary point of coordination with client Epic application and IT teams. Operations staff perform the work; the Epic Program Manager enables and prepares them to do it, building Epic workflow training, supporting staff proficiency, and partnering with the Integration Analyst and the claims pipeline team so data and Alteva solutions flow correctly between client Epic and Alteva systems. The role partners closely with Implementation & Client Readiness on client onboarding and shares post-go-live monitoring and support with the Integration Analyst.
