• Test steps
• Expected result
• Actual result

• Description of the problem
• Screenshot or screen recording showing the issue

Qualified candidates outside the area may also be considered. Training and testing meetings can be conducted through Google Meet when appropriate.

(J) What Makes Someone Successful in This Role:

The ideal candidate is someone who can look at PillarThera and think:

“If I were actually using this system to manage a patient, document a visit, obtain authorization, submit a Plan of Care, create a claim, or manage a healthcare provider, would this workflow make sense and work correctly?”
