Eligibility, licensing, and location restrictions can change. Always confirm details on the source posting before applying.

Why this is worth applying to

Worth considering only if you already have payer relations, reimbursement, market access, health policy, or medical affairs experience. Strong clinical credentials alone are unlikely to clear a director-level payer-relations bar.

Who should apply

Clinicians with market access, payer relations, reimbursement, health policy, HEOR, or medical affairs experience, especially those with ophthalmology, optometry, or device-related exposure.

CV angle

Reframe clinical experience around evidence interpretation, coding and coverage familiarity, stakeholder engagement, cross-functional collaboration, compliance, and executive communication. Quantify relevant policy, reimbursement, or access projects without inventing payer relationships.

Skills to highlight

  • Payer relations
  • Market access strategy
  • Reimbursement and coverage policy
  • Clinical evidence communication
  • Health economics and outcomes research
  • Cross-functional collaboration
  • Compliance
  • Executive communication

Role summary

A regional director role leading payer engagement for a medical device company, focused on building relationships with Medicare contractors, commercial plans, Medicaid organizations, and IDNs to support coverage, coding, reimbursement, and patient access for TearCare.
