Career History

TRANSAMERICA REINSURANCE

Level II International Operations Analyst August 2009-

present

Responsibilities include reviewing and posting monthly/quarterly premium

statements for multiple international clients (Korea, Japan, Latin

American, etc) which adds a complexity to the general ledger posting

process due to the multiple currency exchange rates and "home grown"

systems which enable this workflow to exist. This process also includes

communicating with multiple regions, time zones, and cultures to ensure

accuracy in the reporting of premium data and claims in compliance with the

treaty provisions. Current key goals include transitioning existing paper

reporting to an electronic data format that can utilized to assist with the

experience studies and enable the overall statement process to be more

effective. This includes coordinating the assistance of data management and

IT teams to ensure all results are met for value of new business.

Claims Analyst Team Lead February 2008 - August 2008

Assisted Manager with day to day operational functions to ensure that all

results were met and maintained. Trained as a back-up to the Manager to

act in her absence regarding reports. Facilitated multiple in house

training (Specifically: A Lunch and Learn on selecting the correct Causes

of Death and WIP release training which included a step-by-step guide to

processing claims.) Continued collecting SOX documents for the team, team

audits, processing complex claims, and supporting the analysts as needed.

Senior Claims Analyst July 2006 -February 2008

were out of the office. Facilitated Beyond the Basics for Claims.

MUTUAL OF OMAHA, Gastonia, NC 2003 - 2005

Supervised a team of 22 Claims Analyst/Specialists and the office's

trainer. The analysts and specialist handled appeals, adjustments,

preauthorizations, returned drafts, refunds, and worked directly with new

examiner trainees. Monitored results through monthly MBO's (Managed

Business Objectives). The office trainer was responsible for all new hire

training classes in addition to "in house" refresher trainings as

determined by quality results. The responsibilities of the Technical Unit

Claims Supervisor also included completing payroll, daily work

distribution, inventory management, coordinating support when necessary

with Sister offices in South Dakota and Oklahoma, bi-annual and annual

appraisals, continual staffing analysis, and maintaining Gallup survey

results within the 50th percentile.

Responsible for revising existing technical production standards which

resulted in a staffing reduction saving approximately $150,000 in

salary. This project began in July, 2005 and the new standards were

implemented in October, 2005.

MUTUAL OF OMAHA, Gastonia, NC 1996 - 2003

Production Claims Unit Supervisor

Supervised a team of 22 Claims Examiners ranging in experience from new

monitored through monthly MBO's. The responsibilities of this position

also included completing payroll, daily work distribution, inventory

management, dictating and delivering bi-annual and annual appraisals,

continual staffing analysis, and maintaining Gallup survey results within

the 50th percentile.

In January, 2003, the Company transitioned to a Trizetto computer

system (Facets) which resulted in a reduction of each team's size by

approximately 5 examiners. As the first team in the office to process

claims on this system, accuracy and timely handling of claims did not

suffer. In addition, interaction between my team and the IS (system)

team was critical to ensure that the OBRA (Omnibus Budget

Reconciliation Act of 1993) Law was applied appropriately to the

applicable claims.
