Medical Biller

Aegis (YC X25), New York, NY, United States


Company Description
Aegis is a YC-backed AI startup building agents that handle insurance denial appeals end-to-end. We help hospitals and medical groups recover more revenue from denied claims with far less manual work.

Role Description
You’ll review complex inpatient denial cases, evaluate appeal letters drafted by our AI, and tell us where they fall short. Specifically, you’ll help us identify:
What is missing from the appeal
What arguments are weak
What documentation should be included
What a payer reviewer would flag
Why an appeal would likely be upheld or overturned

Your feedback will directly improve how we fine-tune Aegis’s AI agents.

Qualifications
Prior experience appealing

inpatient denials

Strong understanding of inpatient denial logic, including

medical necessity, payer requirements, prior authorization, DRG/coding, and level-of-care denials
Familiarity with medical necessity guidelines such as

MCG

and

InterQual
Ability to clearly identify what makes an appeal strong, weak, incomplete, or likely to be denied again

Compensation
Range is $40-$60 per hour, and this is part-time job, and requires roughly 10 hours of work every week. This is a chance to work closely with the founders and help reshape how the RCM industry handles denials.
