Allen Kiel
@allenkiel
Healthcare technology leader specializing in Medicaid/PBM regulatory reporting and automation.
What I'm looking for
I am a seasoned healthcare technology professional with two decades of experience, focused recently on Medicaid and PBM regulatory reporting. I combine deep domain knowledge of pharmacy claims, rebates, billing, audit/FWA, provider networks, and MAC appeals data with strong technical skills in SQL and Python.
In my current role I lead Medicaid client-facing regulatory reporting and internal Caremark PBM reporting, collaborating with account teams and external clients to interpret state guidance and ensure compliance. I build scalable reporting solutions and manage responses to regulator inquiries.
My achievements include building a Medicaid regulatory inventory and tracking system across 50+ state reports and automating reporting processes to cut manual processing time by 40%. Previously I automated CMS audit testing (Informatica) reducing testing time by 75% and implemented PowerApps/SharePoint intake tools and Tableau dashboards for leadership.
I am PMP-certified and experienced leading cross-functional teams, establishing PMO standards, and delivering technology and reporting solutions that improve visibility, governance, and operational efficiency. I bring a practical, client-facing approach to solving complex regulatory reporting challenges.
