• Engage with customers, primarily within the hospital, physician office and home infusion environments, to ensure they have the information and tools to assess the value of the company’s products and how to realize appropriate reimbursement? 

• Ensure customers truly understand the potential economic impact associated with a product that is such an elegant and different solution to a critical medical challenge? 

• All while working for a growing mid-size Biotech where a sense of employee ownership and commitment to the mission enables employees to feel both valued and impactful every day?

• Use your expert knowledge of the West Coast or Mid-West market to identify and prioritize opportunities to work with local commercial payers to minimize barriers to reimbursement and patient access for MDCO’s Infectious Disease solutions?
