🌟 Employee Spotlight: Jaszmine Thomas, Executive Consultant, Managed Care Contracting and Strategy 🌟

This week, we’re excited to shine a spotlight on Jaszmine Thomas, who brings over 13 years of experience in healthcare to the PayrHealth team.

Jaszmine’s passion for managed care was sparked by witnessing gaps in access to quality healthcare and payment disparities—especially among behavioral health providers. That experience drives her commitment to creating more equitable outcomes for both providers and patients.

At PayrHealth, Jaszmine is energized by the opportunity to collaborate with a diverse range of providers, helping them navigate complex contracting challenges and develop strategies to maximize reimbursement potential.

What makes PayrHealth special for her? “It’s the people,” Jaszmine says. “The team’s diverse backgrounds and willingness to share knowledge create a truly supportive and collaborative environment.”

When she’s not helping clients succeed, Jaszmine can be found participating in Ocean City, MD’s Car Week with her Nissan Z or adding to her Harry Potter ornament collection. Currently, she’s hooked on Welcome to Derry—continuing her recent horror kick! 👻

We’re proud to have Jaszmine on the PayrHealth team. Thank you for your dedication, expertise, and the energy you bring every day! 💙
