Payer Invoice Work Queue

The Payer Invoice Work Queue is a table that allows Payers in social care to track invoices submitted by Community Based Organizations (CBOs) for the reimbursement of services they provided (food, housing, transportation, etc). I led the technical design for this initiative, and the UX design for its enhancements to workflow efficiency.

ROLE

Design Engineer

IMPACT

Facilitated reimbursement of $152M+ to Community Based Organizations (CBOs) in North Carolina and reduced payer invoice rejection rate from the national average of 18% to 1.5%

Challenge

Overwhelming amount of invoices, and confusing table design

Users expressed that they are often duplicating the same task for hundreds of similar invoices. We needed a way to group invoices, and take bulk actions on all of them at the same time. The table design also wasn't intuitive to users. The filters were too far away from the table, and the bulk download button wasn't properly grouped with the other filters.

Approach

Introduce bulk actions and simplify the table design.
Bulk Actions

Users have had to go through hundreds of invoices one at a time, greatly reducing their efficiency. I designed bulk actions to the Payer Work Queue which allows users to group related invoices and respond to them at the same time.

User Assignment

Users have said that it can be difficult keeping track of when an invoice is already being looked at by a colleague. I designed the ability to assign invoices to users, and give them "In Review" statuses.

WHAT'S NEXT

These work queue designs were intended to be scalable enough for future users including New York as a part of the New York Medicaid 1115 Waiver initiative. The work queue's design is constantly being iterated on for improved efficiency.
