Description: Mercer Marsh Benefits (MMB) are looking for a Private Medical Plan Auditor to join our Workplace Health team in London, although for the right candidate we may consider candidates based from our other UK offices. This is a hybrid working role, with a requirement to work three days per week in the office.
Role Overview To provide independent oversight of our clients’ Private Medical Trust’s claims processing performed by the Third-Party Administrator (TPA), ensuring claims authorisation decisions and payments are accurate and compliant with the scheme benefit design, authorisation requirements, applicable fee schedules/tariffs, and internal controls. The role also reviews the quality of the member claims experience through their interaction with the TPA. The role identifies areas of digression from the benefit design or authorisation requirements, supports recoveries/corrections where appropriate, makes recommendations to improve end-to-end claims quality and the member experience through insight and corrective actions.
We will count on you to:
Audit delivery & claims quality
- Develop and deliver a risk-based audit report across claim types (e.g., inpatient/day case, outpatient, diagnostics, therapies, mental health, oncology, etc.) aligned to the Trust’s governance priorities and agreed audit scope.
- Perform post-payment audits of TPA claim decisions and payments to validate:
- member eligibility and scheme participation at date of service
- benefit entitlement, limits, cost shares (excess/co-insurance), waiting periods, exclusions, etc.
- adherence to pre-authorisation/referral requirements and applicable clinical/case management pathways
- quality of the member experience when corresponding with the claims service and pathways.
- Validate the accuracy of claim set-up and adjudication (including documentation completeness, correct benefit selection, and correct application of tariffs/fee schedules, network rules, etc.).
- Identify, evidence and quantify issues including over/under-payments, duplicate payments, non-covered services, miscoding/upcoding, unbundling, and processing/administrative errors.
Reasons to use Rodeo
I’m in my final year doing Economics and I don’t know whether to apply for grad schemes now or do a masters first. What do you think?
Honest answer — it depends on where you want to end up. A lot of top grad schemes (Big 4, civil service, banking) don’t need a masters. Let’s look at the ones you’d be competitive for now, and we can decide if a masters actually adds anything.
Also worth knowing: most autumn 2026 applications are open now. Timing matters more than you think.
Start with a chat, not a search bar
Grad scheme, placement, apprenticeship? Not sure what you want yet — that's fine. Your agent talks it through with you and turns "I have no idea" into a shortlist.
