PHRN Clinical Data Validation

Talent Acquisition at Tata Consultancy Services

Job Summary

We are seeking a Registered Nurse (RN) based in the Philippines to join our healthcare IT team. This role focuses on clinical data validation during an electronic health record (EHR) migration. You will review, compare, and validate patient data (e.g., medications, allergies, diagnoses, lab results, and clinical notes) from the source system (e.g., eClinicalWorks) to the new platform (e.g., athenahealth). The ideal candidate is detail-oriented, possesses strong clinical judgment, and is comfortable working with both clinical and technical aspects of healthcare data. Must have the ability to work Philippine night shifts.

• Data Validation & Review
  • Manually review patient records (medications, allergies, diagnoses, procedures, labs, immunizations, progress notes) post-migration to ensure accuracy and completeness.
  • Compare data fields in the new EHR (e.g., athenahealth) against the legacy source (e.g., eClinicalWorks), identifying any discrepancies.
• Quality Assurance
  • Conduct spot checks on high-complexity patient charts, focusing on critical data elements that may affect patient safety.
  • Work with team leads or a nurse manager to resolve “fallouts” (exceptions or error logs from the automated migration process).
• Clinical Judgment & Escalation
  • Identify clinically significant discrepancies (e.g., missing allergies, incorrect medication dosages) and escalate these issues to the appropriate stakeholders.
  • Provide input on clinical workflows and possible improvements in data mapping.
• Documentation & Reporting
  • Maintain accurate validation logs, noting all changes or corrections made during the review process.
  • Generate reports summarizing validation progress, error rates, and any systemic issues discovered.
  • Collaborate with data migration specialists, IT teams, and physicians to clarify data mapping rules and resolve complex cases.
  • Participate in team huddles or meetings to share best practices and discuss recurring data issues.
• Adherence to Compliance & Confidentiality
  • Uphold HIPAA, GDPR, or other relevant privacy/security regulations when handling patient data.
  • Maintain strict confidentiality of all patient information throughout the migration and validation process.

1. Education & Licensure
   • Must be a Registered Nurse (RN) with a valid license to practice in the Philippines.
   • Bachelor’s degree in Nursing (BSN) or equivalent is preferred.
2. Experience
   • 1–2+ years of clinical nursing experience (hospital, clinic, or other healthcare setting).
   • Previous healthcare BPO or clinical data experience is highly beneficial.
   • Familiarity with EHR/EMR systems (e.g., eClinicalWorks, athenahealth, Epic, Cerner) is a plus.
3. Technical Skills
   • Comfortable using Microsoft Office (Excel, Word) or Google Workspace to track validation tasks.
   • Knowledge of medical coding (ICD-10, CPT, SNOMED) and medical terminology.
   • Ability to learn new software quickly and apply clinical expertise in a technical environment.
4. Soft Skills
   • Attention to Detail: Meticulous approach to verifying data accuracy.
   • Communication: Strong written and verbal skills in English; able to effectively collaborate with remote teams.
   • Problem-Solving: Capable of investigating discrepancies and proposing solutions.
