A Day in the Life Peripheral Vascular Health (PVH) is a dynamic business with annual revenue exceeding $1 billion across multiple high-growth therapy areas.

The analyst may also support analysis of hospital and payer price transparency data to generate market access insights across the PVH portfolio. You will also represent HEPR on product development, launch, and clinical study workstreams by providing reimbursement input, partnering with therapy leads and health economics and outcomes research (HEOR) colleagues on evidence-related needs, and helping ensure reimbursement considerations are reflected in cross-functional plans. In addition, you will provide direct support and education to U.S. customers and sales teams on coding, coverage, payment, documentation, prior authorization, and appeals, serving as a key reimbursement resource for therapies that do not have dedicated reimbursement field support.
