Your Role

As a Health Economics & Outcomes Research (HEOR) specialist focusing in rare tumor, you'll generate rigorous medical evidence to support clinical strategy and inform access decisions by population health decision-makers:

• Developing comprehensive value evidence strategies — design and execute systematic literature reviews, real-world evidence (RWE) studies, and patient-reported outcomes (PRO) research to build a robust clinical evidence base
• Leading real-world evidence research programs — design observational study protocols, develop Statistical Analysis Plans (SAPs), oversee execution, and produce final reports that meet the highest methodological standards
• Characterizing disease burden and real-world outcomes — lead epidemiological and database analyses to understand patient populations, treatment patterns, and real-world clinical outcomes that inform access decisions
• Building and validating economic models — develop cost-effectiveness and budget impact models grounded in real-world clinical data to quantify value for population health decision-makers
• Creating evidence-focused materials for population health stakeholders — lead development of AMCP Dossiers, health economics briefs, and supporting documentation that translate HEOR findings into formats addressing the evidence and economic evaluation needs of population health decision-makers and formulary committees
• Supporting field medical communications — partner with field medical to translate complex HEOR findings into clear, scientifically sound materials for health system audiences
• Representing HEOR across cross-functional workstreams — collaborate with medical and market access teams to align on evidence strategy, timelines, and deliverables; serve as the HEOR voice in integrated product workstreams
• Synthesizing insights — integrate insights from access stakeholders, clinical experts, and published literature to continuously strengthen and refine the clinical evidence narrative
• Publishing scientific findings — drive peer-reviewed manuscript publication and conference abstracts to establish clinical credibility and contribute to the scientific literature
• Managing the research portfolio — oversee multiple concurrent HEOR projects, external research partnerships, and budgets to deliver high-quality evidence on time and within scope
