Original job description

Policy Manager Overview

The Policy Manager plays a key role in Wayspring’s work to improve the quality, affordability, and effectiveness of care for individuals with complex behavioral health needs. As a core builder and author of Wayspring’s behavioral health policy library, this person turns evidence into policies that become claims edits, chart-review rubrics, and policy content delivered to health plans.

This role is responsible for researching, developing, evaluating, and maintaining behavioral health clinical and payment policies. The Policy Manager will use clinical evidence, healthcare research, regulatory guidance, ASAM criteria, claims and utilization data, coding standards, and industry best practices to develop thoughtful, evidence-based policies that support appropriate care, medical necessity, payment integrity, and responsible utilization of healthcare services. Each policy is written to be precise enough to codify, so it can be applied consistently across utilization management, claims edits, and chart review.

This position will work cross-functionally with the Associate Medical Director, clinical leadership, Clinical Auditors, Network Solutions, Analytics, Compliance, Operations, engineering, and health plan partners. The ideal candidate is a strong researcher and critical thinker who enjoys becoming a subject matter expert in complex healthcare topics and can translate research and evidence into clear, practical, and defensible policies. This is a build-stage role: you will help shape how Wayspring writes, approves, and codifies policy, and how quickly the library grows.

Why Wayspring? We are passionate about breaking barriers alongside those with complex behavioral health needs. Whether you’re in the field or in the corporate office – our mission is felt, and your impact is recognized. There is no inner circle, and we all have a seat at the table. Leaders are accessible and silos are avoided. We respect your craft and love to be challenged. We invest not only in our mission, but in each other. Internal promotions and cross departmental training are the norm – you grow, we grow.

Partner with coding and engineering teams to translate approved policies into claims-edit logic and rules
Help draft and inform chart-review rubrics with clinical leadership so that pre-pay and post-pay reviews apply policy consistently
Use findings from Clinical Auditors’ chart reviews to refine policies, rubrics, and claims-edit logic
Support behavioral health payment integrity initiatives across the claim lifecycle, including prior authorization and utilization management, claims edits, pre-pay and post-pay chart review, and recovery
Support implementation and ongoing evaluation of approved policies, including identifying unintended impacts, provider considerations, operational challenges, and opportunities for refinement

Cross-Functional & Health Plan Partnership

Partner with Network Solutions, Clinical, Compliance, Operations, and other teams to assess the potential clinical, operational, and financial implications of proposed policy changes
Prepare policy documents and supporting materials for review with clinical leadership, internal stakeholders, and health plan partners

Contribute knowledge and research expertise to the continued development of Wayspring’s behavioral health solutions
