This position exists to lead the analysis, development, and implementation of State Medical Review Team (SMRT) eligibility policies and legislative initiatives across Minnesota Health Care Programs, including Medical Assistance ABD, MA-EPD, TEFRA, Managed Care Exclusion, Family Support Grant, Special Needs Basic Care (SNBC), and MA Home and Community-Based Waivered services. The incumbent provides high-level policy leadership, systems integration, and strategic coordination to ensure that SMRT’s disability policy, eligibility pathways, and project priorities remain aligned with legislative intent and operational feasibility. As a key driver of operational and policy coherence, the incumbent translates complex guidance into user-friendly communications, identifies and removes systemic barriers, and contributes to continuous improvement efforts that enhance accuracy, timeliness, and equity in disability determinations. This position plays a central role in managing SMRT's outreach efforts by coordinating presentation requests, conference attendance, and other public-facing educational activities to ensure clear messaging, proactive stakeholder engagement, and the collaborative advancement of SMRT goals.
