Are you passionate about policy, precision, and helping people? We’re looking for a detail-oriented and dedicated Trainer and Quality Assurance Specialist to join our Adult Medicaid team within Economic Services. In this key role, you’ll help ensure that program benefits are delivered correctly, fairly, and efficiently — improving the lives of adults and families who rely on Medicaid.

• Help shape the training and standards that define quality service delivery.
• Join a collaborative, mission-driven team that values professionalism, growth, and service to the community.

• Conduct comprehensive reviews of Medicaid cases to ensure compliance with federal, state, and local policies. Identify trends, errors, and training needs through diagnostic evaluations and data analysis. Maintain accurate case records and data in agency systems, ensuring timely entry of participation hours, outcome plans, and benefit releases to maintain compliance and program integrity.
• Stay current on Medicaid and Economic Services program policies. Ensure accuracy and consistency in case determinations, benefit calculations, and customer communications.
• Mentor and support staff through coaching, constructive feedback, and hands-on training. Support supervisors by reviewing and evaluating their case assessments to maintain consistent quality standards.
• Assist in audit preparation (federal, state, or local), contribute to the development of corrective or improvement plans, and ensure follow-up implementation.

What You Bring:

• Proven ability to analyze, interpret, and apply complex regulations
• Experience in training, quality assurance, or casework supervision
• Excellent communication skills — both written and verbal
• High attention to detail and a commitment to accuracy
• Ability to work independently and collaboratively with minimal supervision
• Skilled in using QA tools, creating documentation, and preparing reports
• Professionalism, cultural competence, and ethical integrity in all interactions
