You understand medical reimbursement in workers’ compensation and use that knowledge to drive efficient, compliant case resolution.

  • Monitor evolving regulations and industry best practices to inform strategy and ensure compliance.
  • Advise internal teams on risk management and optimal case outcomes.
  • Apply expertise in medical reimbursement to drive efficient, compliant case resolution.
  • Directly review and handle complex workers’ compensation claims as needed.
  • Collaborate with internal teams and external stakeholders to execute case strategies and achieve results.

Qualifications

  • Juris Doctor (JD) degree and active bar license in Oregon; multi-state licensure a plus.
  • 5-10 years’ experience managing attorneys and legal counsel, preferably in workers’ compensation.
  • Strong expertise in workers’ compensation litigation strategy, including complex cases.
  • Deep knowledge of multi-state regulations, procedures, and compliance requirements in workers’ compensation.
  • Proficiency in medical reimbursement practices and their application in workers’ compensation claims.
  • Demonstrated ability to balance strategic oversight with hands-on case management.
  • Experience working with expert witnesses in litigation or claims resolution.
  • Excellent leadership, communication, and collaboration skills across teams and stakeholders.
  • Proven ability to adapt quickly to evolving regulations and changing case dynamics.
  • Must be based in the Portland metro area or able to commute regularly.
