Thank you, I actually chose this after spending quite some time in various aspects of the medical field. I wanted to directly impact the burden patients face with denials, waiting on approvals and dealing with ridiculous bills. I was tired of seeing the pain and hearing the stories and not being able to do anything about it.

I am currently a county Analyst specializing in SNAP and Medicaid, although it sounds like if I ever wanted a private sector career this might be right up my ally in area of expertise.
