Kandu Inc. is hiring a part-time, temporary Credentialing Specialist to own the full payer credentialing workflow for Kandu Medical Services. This is a hands-on ops role: enroll providers, keep CAQH/PECOS clean, manage re-credentialing timelines, and make sure clinicians are payer-ready across multiple states. Contract is 3 months (possible extension), about 20 hours/week.
About Kandu
Kandu Inc. was formed after Kandu Health and Neurolutions merged in April 2025 to combine FDA-cleared brain-computer interface rehab tech (IpsiHand®) with telehealth stroke recovery services and care navigation.
Schedule
- Temporary contract: 3 months (possible extension)
- Part-time: ~20 hours/week
- Remote (U.S.)
- Pay: $28–$38/hour (based on experience)
- Reports to: Senior Director of Clinical Services
What You’ll Do
Payer Credentialing & Enrollment
- Submit new enrollments for clinicians with Medicare, Medicaid, and commercial payers
- Track enrollment progress, follow up, and escalate delays or missing info
- Maintain provider data in CAQH and PECOS, including attestations and updates
- Keep credentialing files accurate and compliant with internal standards
Re-Credentialing & Compliance
- Track re-credentialing cycles and start early (before deadlines sneak up)
- Maintain audit-ready documentation
- Flag risks, delays, or new payer requirements to internal teams
Operational Coordination
- Maintain a credentialing tracker with real-time status, timelines, and outstanding items
- Coordinate with Revenue Ops, Clinical Services, and Billing so credentialing doesn’t bottleneck cashflow
- Provide clear reporting and summaries to leadership
Provider Support & Communication
- Be the point person for credentialing questions and document requests
- Communicate with providers and payer reps professionally
- Improve workflows, templates, and documentation as you go
What You Need
- 2+ years in healthcare credentialing / provider enrollment
- Strong CAQH + PECOS knowledge, Medicare enrollment, commercial payer credentialing
- Experience credentialing physicians and/or APPs (multi-state ideally)
- Strong organization, attention to detail, and time management
- Comfortable working independently and juggling multiple workstreams remotely
- Clear written and verbal communication
Preferred
- Multi-state telehealth credentialing experience
- State Medicaid enrollment familiarity
- Digital health / early-stage care org experience
- Worked closely with Revenue Ops, Billing, or Compliance
My blunt take (so you don’t waste a click): this role is “paperwork with consequences.” If you’re the type who gets satisfaction from clean trackers, nagging payers without losing your cool, and preventing revenue delays before they happen, you’ll cook here. If you hate chasing documents and managing deadlines like a hawk, this will feel like death by a thousand follow-ups.
If you want to go after it, paste your resume and I’ll tailor:
- a 4–6 line resume summary that hits CAQH/PECOS + multi-state + volume handling
- bullet rewrites that match their language (payer-ready, audit-ready, tracker, escalation)
- a tight, no-fluff cover letter paragraph set (even if optional, it helps for temp contracts)
Happy Hunting,
