About this Role
What you'll do
Mercor is partnering with leading AI labs to advance frontier agent evaluations in healthcare operations. As a Health Operations Expert, you'll design realistic, end-to-end healthcare workflows that today's best models still struggle with, then grade how agents handle them. Expect to build scenarios across revenue cycle and claims (claims submission, denial appeals, prior authorization, medical coding in ICD-10 and CPT, charge entry, billing inquiries), healthcare administration (patient scheduling, intake, eligibility verification, referral coordination, records requests, patient communications), clinical documentation support (chart abstraction, note formatting, discharge summary prep, order entry support, template management), and compliance and care coordination (HIPAA documentation, care plan tracking, case management, regulatory quality reporting). These scenarios will be challenging and take long sessions of focus.

Frequently Asked Questions
Is this for freelancers or full-time employees?
Both. Mercor tries to match you with clients who want long-term contractors. Unlike other platforms where you log in and grab small tasks, Mercor matches you with one company for a steady role (e.g., 'Python Tutor for 3 months').
I'm not comfortable on camera. Can I still apply?
No. The application requires a video interview with an AI avatar. The AI asks you questions about your resume, and the video is shared with potential clients to prove your communication skills.
Does it cost money to join?
No. You should never pay to join these platforms. Mercor makes money by charging the client a fee on top of your hourly rate.
What does the work actually look like?
It is practical, hands-on data work. You might be recording short videos, categorizing images, rating text responses, or analyzing data. The tasks are designed to be short and distinct—typically 5-60 minutes per task.
How flexible is the schedule?
Extremely. This is true "log in and work" flexibility. You can usually work for 20 minutes or 4 hours depending on your availability. There are rarely minimum hour requirements, making it ideal for side income.
Is there an interview?
Usually, no. Hiring for these roles is almost entirely based on passing an automated assessment or "qualification" task. If you pass the test, you get access to the work.
How soon will I start?
Important: Mercor is a talent marketplace, not a task queue. Applying puts you in a pool of candidates. You will only start working when a specific client (like a major AI lab) selects your profile. This matching process can take weeks.
