Tivity Health is seeking a highly skilled and self-sufficient Director of Health Economics & Outcomes Research (HEOR) to serve as a key internal consultant across our diverse product portfolio. Reporting to the VP of Consumer Insights & Analytics, you will lead the generation of clinical and health outcomes-based insights that directly support corporate strategy, product development, and client growth. The ideal candidate is a subject matter expert in claims analysis who can transition seamlessly between deep technical execution (using SQL/SAS) and high-level strategic consultation. You will be responsible for demonstrating the value of our wellness and integrative care solutions to our various clients by designing and executing rigorous studies that prove impact on both member health and total cost of care.

 

Responsibilities:

  • Internal Strategic Consultant: Act as the lead HEOR expert for all Tivity Health products, providing evidence-based insights to inform product innovation and go-to-market strategies.

Understand business value levers to be able to translate them into study design.
  • Targeted Claims Analysis: Hands-on extraction and manipulation of large-scale healthcare claims databases to identify trends, cost-savings, and clinical outcomes.
  • Recurring Claims Analysis: Generate outlier, ROI/savings analysis from utilization management, and claims analysis/reporting which are distributed monthly, quarterly, and annually to our internal team members and our clients. Additionally present the results of these analyses externally during client JOCs, QBRs, and Annual Reviews.
  • Value Proposition Development: Translate complex research findings into compelling value stories for clients, demonstrating how Tivity’s wellness and integrative care solutions drive clinical improvement and ROI.
  • Value Storytelling: Translate complex data into persuasive, executive-level value stories that demonstrate how our programs impact member health outcomes and total cost of care.
  • Cross-Functional Collaboration: Partner with Strategy, Clinical, Product, Client Relations, and Sales teams to ensure data-driven insights are integrated into the product lifecycle and all sales and client growth efforts.
  • HEOR External SME: Serve as the primary HEOR subject matter expert in external meetings with clients, partners, vendors, and strategic prospects.
  • Consultative Selling Support: Partner with the Sales and Growth teams to build credibility by articulating the rigorous scientific methodology and clinical evidence behind Tivity Health’s solutions.
  • Market Insight Synthesis: Act as a conduit between the market and internal teams, gathering feedback from partners and the market to ensure our HEOR strategy and product development remain aligned with evolving needs and industry trends.

Qualifications

  • Formal Education: Master’s degree or PhD in Health Economics, Epidemiology, Biostatistics, Public Health, or a related quantitative field strongly preferred. Bachelor's degree with five years of directly related experience required.
  • Technical Expertise: Advanced proficiency in SAS is required for performing complex claims analysis and statistical modeling.

    • Strong analytical skills and presentation skills with particular attention and expertise being paid to the presentation of findings and the development of logical and appropriate recommendations.
    • Ability to participate in discussions with internal and external parties regarding client strategies.
