Description

NELC is one of the fastest growing home infusion therapy services companies in New England and is the region’s only non-profit home infusion provider. NELC is a hospital collaborative serving more than 70 hospital systems in Maine, New Hampshire, and Massachusetts. NELC was created by local hospitals to ensure their patients have access to a provider that reflects their commitment to excellence in patient care, quality, and service. Like our owner hospitals, NELC provides patient focused care. New England Life Care has and continues to build a diverse, inclusive, and authentic workplace, so if you’re energized by this opportunity, we encourage you to apply! New England Life Care currently has an opening for a Financial Data Analyst. This position typically works Monday through Friday from 8:00am until 5:00pm.

Note on AI Governance Participation New England Life Care is committed to the responsible adoption of AI across its operations. This role is expected to be an active contributor — not a passive observer — to NELC’s AI governance process. That includes helping to define acceptable use guidelines, evaluating tools for HIPAA compliance, flagging potential data risks, and serving as a trusted resource for colleagues adopting AI in their own workflows. Candidates should bring both enthusiasm for AI’s potential and a clear-eyed understanding of its limitations. EOE Monday – Friday from 8:00am – 5:00pm
