Monique Pierce

Monique is a Strategic Executive Healthcare Leader with proven ability to develop solutions and maximize the benefits of Payment Integrity programs.  She is known for having excellent domain knowledge and being driven, high performing, and having a deep dedication to recruiting and developing top talent.

Monique started her Payment Integrity career at Oxford HealthPlans in the COB and Subrogation Department after spending time in Payment Policy.  When United Healthcare acquired many health plans in the early 2000s like Oxford, Monique was tagged as part of the Optum team to integrate the processes and people into the COB systems that she had built at Oxford.  She led systems development, quality, reporting, operations, vendor management and was responsible for creating innovative proactive programs that more than doubled savings to $1.4B in three years.

Monique developed a successful program that reduced interest expense on late claims for UHC, assisted a communication company to develop COB tools and assisted in strategic system projects before joining SCIO Health Analytics in 2014 to develop new products - specifically prepayment programs.

In 2015 she became the product owner of SCIOMine, the company’s internal audit application and managed the roadmap.  Monique also owned

strategic direction for operational metrics and reporting including executive scorecards. Monique was promoted to VP of Business Opportunities and Client Engagement where she improved Audit Recovery TAT by 39% and reduced client implementations TAT by 11% and the Level of Effort by 18% while increasing the count of implementation projects by 126%.

In 2020 Monique joined Devoted Health, a startup company with the goal of building the first ever integrated Payment Integrity Program.  The company has one system, great data, and a great mission; to change health care by treating every member as if they are family.

In her spare time, Monique volunteers her time in the community on the Board of Directors of SCARE NH and works in her family business LARP Portal with her husband Rick.
