Overview

AfterQuery supplies the evaluation data that frontier AI labs rely on to test model judgment, and this contract puts licensed case managers on the writing side of that work. You build care coordination scenarios that run from admission through post acute placement, then supply reference answers that explain why each level of care call is correct. Grading model output for clinical soundness and benefit accuracy sits at the center of the job, along with catching plans that look polished but would leave a patient stranded or trigger a denial. Work happens remote and async, with case management depth in discharge planning or utilization review as the foundation.

What You'll Do7

  • Construct realistic care coordination scenarios that begin at admission and continue through post acute placement.
  • Draft reference answers that spell out the reasoning behind every level of care determination.
  • Review model responses for clinical appropriateness and accuracy on benefit questions.
  • Call out care plans that read well on paper yet would strand a patient or set off a payer denial.
  • Tailor scenarios to your own specialty area so the evaluations reflect real professional practice.
  • Set your own weekly hours, with a floor of 10 and no ceiling, and scale output up or down as your schedule allows.
  • Write care plan logic clearly enough that another case manager can follow the trail without asking questions.

Requirements8

  • An active RN or LCSW license, or a CCM certification.
  • At least 2 years of case management practice in a hospital, payer, or community setting.
  • Demonstrated depth in discharge planning, utilization review, or complex care coordination.
  • Clear written English suitable for documenting care plans and level of care decisions.
  • Availability of 10 hours per week or more.
  • CCM or ACM certification preferred.
  • Familiarity with InterQual or MCG criteria preferred.
  • Payer side utilization management or appeals background preferred.

Who Should Apply

Licensed case managers with 2 or more years in a hospital, payer, or community setting who can explain a level of care decision in writing and spot the plan that looks fine but fails the patient. CCM or ACM holders with InterQual, MCG, or payer appeals experience fit best.

Salary Insight

The listing quotes $70 to $115 per hour, paid weekly through Stripe, and the rate follows your experience rather than landing at the low end after you sign. That band runs well above standard hospital case management pay, which reflects the expert review nature of the work. Contractors bill hourly and choose their own weekly hours.
