How do you keep many reviews and remediation plans on track at the same time?

What they are checking: Organization and tracking discipline for a role that juggles many monitoring activities.

What experience do you have with government-sponsored health care programs, and what rules have you worked with most?

About the work

Walk me through how you'd conduct a focused review of a delegated vendor's compliance with our contract requirements.

What they are checking: Whether they have a structured audit approach, from scoping and sampling to findings and follow-up.

What does delegation oversight mean to you, and why does the health plan stay accountable for work a vendor does?

How would you assess a new or amended Medicare or Medicaid requirement to figure out who in the company it affects?

What they are checking: Skill at reading regulatory changes and mapping them to the right business owners.

How do you write up findings so they're clear, fair and hard to argue with?
