Job Description:

An important aspect of patient unmet need includes helping them start and stay on their medicine for the best chance at treatment success. The Patient Engagement and Customer Solutions (PECS) organization serves patients, during their treatment journey with Janssen therapies, to help overcome challenges to fulfillment, on-boarding, and adherence.

The Field Reimbursement Manager (FRM) is responsible for serving as the primary field-based lead for education, assistance, and issue resolution with healthcare providers (HCPs), and their office staff, with respect to patient access to J&J Immunology therapies. This role involves investing time (up to 50%) on-site with HCPs, assessing their education needs and facilitating collaboration with various stakeholders.

A Day in the Life

Every patient’s healthcare experience is unique - shaped by personal experiences and beliefs, the presence or absence of support networks, provider and payer dynamics, and socioeconomic factors. For many patients, the decision to start or stop a treatment is overwhelming. J&J recognizes this, and wants to create an experience that is personalized, helpful, and hopeful.

Primary Responsibilities:

• Primary responsibilities include the following. Other duties may be assigned.

• Educate HCPs on product coverage, prior authorizations and appeals, reimbursement processes, claims submissions, procedures, and coding requirements of payer organizations (local payers, government payers, etc.) for core and launch products.

• Build strong, trust-based relationships with customers in all assigned Immunology accounts.

• Manage territory logistics, routing, and account business planning.

• Maintain and grow knowledge of national, regional, local, and account market dynamics including coverage and coding requirements.

• Grow the knowledge of hub and specialty distribution channels to improve practice and patient support needs.

• Collaborate with internal J&J departments such as marketing, sales, medical science, SCG, IBG, HCC, and PECS. Serve as subject matter expert regarding education and insights on access and affordability solutions across multiple payer types and plans (i.e., Medicare, Medicaid Managed Care, Commercial).

• Execute business in accordance with the highest ethical, legal, and compliance standards, including timely and successful completion of all required training.

Market Access Expertise:

• Extensive knowledge of medication access channels (i.e., pharmacy and medical benefit including buy & bill and/or assignment of benefit (AOB) across multiple sites of care.

• Remains current on and anticipates changes in product coverage and access knowledge, marketplace conditions, and stakeholder practices to deliver the most effective delivery of approved materials.

• Understands and adapts to the changing healthcare ecosystem to customize resourcing and messaging to HCPs and HCP staff.
