## About

```text
At PAELON MEMORIAL HOSPITAL, I increased organisational revenue by over 75% and developed new corporate healthcare partnerships. I also negotiated contracts with 37+ HMOs and insurers.

In my concurrent appointments as Business Development Manager and Health Management & Corporate Services Manager, I led a team of four and prepared bids and commercial proposals.

I managed more than 200 medical claims monthly, reduced outstanding debt to 2%, and brought rejected claims to approximately 1%.

Earlier, as Health Management Officer at PAELON MEMORIAL HOSPITAL, I managed HMO operations, claims, reconciliations, and provider relationships. At UNITED CAC HIGH SCHOOL, I taught Literature-in-English and mentored students as a Head Teacher (NYSC).
