21h • $160,000 - $190,000

About The Position

As an Applied Real-World Data Scientist, you will lead the development and execution of research, analytics, and reporting powering Evio Insights, a product within our Digital Health portfolio. Evio Insights uses real-world evidence (RWE) to generate recommendations related to policy and utilization management, prescriber and patient outreach, care management, and contracting to support high-value medication use. In this role, you will collaborate with teammates across engineering, data, and client-facing teams to uncover insights from our data that help patients access high-cost medications in a simple and affordable way. You will use your analytical skills, innovative mindset, and tenacity to discover ways health plans can improve patients’ medication experiences. Your technical skills, curiosity, and health plan empathy will drive the evolution of Evio Insights to ensure it continues to meet the needs of health plan customers. You will own the analytic lifecycle from problem to recommendation: you’ll translate ambiguous health plan problems into research questions, selecting the appropriate study or modeling approach, executing the analysis, and communicating clear, actionable recommendations.
