Position Purpose: This internship will support Business Technology Solutions. The team the intern will be joining provides back-end IT support to Survey Operations, Clinical Operations and HEDIS Operations teams and their efforts to support Centene Quality Regulatory Reporting. (HEDIS stands for Healthcare Effectiveness Data and Information Set – tool used by health plans to measure performance and improve healthcare quality.)

Location Requirement: This is a remote internship. Candidates will be considered nationally within the U.S.; however, preference will be given to candidates residing in Eastern and Central time zones. If residing outside of these two time zones, please be advised that a requirement of the role will be to attend a daily virtual team huddle at 9am CT.

Goals:

Code and review documentation – as this team works on projects, our code and documentation may sometimes get out of sync. Reconciling our documentation with the code we put into production is an important "after action" task that we do not always have the bandwidth to get to.
