VA Health System Specialist

About the Role

Altivera Medical is hiring a driven healthcare leader to help expand the use of advanced electrotherapy options across the Veterans Affairs health system. The position works closely with Veterans Affairs medical centers and connected community outpatient clinics to improve veteran access to non-opioid pain management care.

The role is designed as the first anchor specialist for a broader rollout. It begins in Phoenix, where the focus is on creating a repeatable framework for clinical adoption and utilization, with the expectation of extending to other VA facilities after the model is established.

This is a highly visible growth role that blends clinical education, relationship management, healthcare system strategy, and revenue impact. The right candidate will be comfortable in complex healthcare settings, confident working with providers, and motivated by building durable programs that support both patient outcomes and business growth.

What Makes This Role Unique

• Chance to shape and scale therapy programs inside one of the most complex healthcare networks in the country
• Direct contribution to veteran outcomes through non-drug treatment pathways
• Strong autonomy with access to executive and sales leadership
• Potential to grow into regional or national leadership across VA accounts

Key Responsibilities

Build trusted relationships across VA clinical and administrative teams, including service line leaders, prosthetics departments, and key decision-makers. Act as the main contact for therapy adoption, reimbursement navigation, and long-term program stability at assigned sites.

Lead clinical and product education through presentations, demonstrations, and ongoing training. Establish yourself as a knowledgeable resource on indications, best practices, documentation, coding considerations, VA policies, and patient access pathways.

Increase therapy use and support revenue growth by expanding patient starts, engaging new prescribing providers, standardizing referral workflows, and contributing to facility and regional growth goals. The position is performance-driven, with success measured by utilization, order volume, provider adoption, and site expansion.

Review current clinical and administrative workflows to find bottlenecks and improvement opportunities. Work with clinical and prosthetics teams to implement efficient processes that align with VA requirements and payer rules.

Align therapy programs with reimbursement structures, prosthetics service expectations, and medical necessity documentation standards. Turn regulatory updates, payer changes, and organizational priorities into practical field actions.

Monitor adoption patterns, growth barriers, and expansion opportunities across assigned locations. Share strategic feedback, utilization data, and forecasting input with sales leadership to support VA market planning.

Support expansion efforts into additional VA medical centers, outpatient clinics, and VISN-level initiatives as operational readiness allows. Partner with government accounts, contracting, reimbursement, and marketing teams to speed up growth.

Responsibilities, assigned sites, and scope may change depending on business needs and organizational priorities. The position also requires local and regional travel to VA facilities and affiliated clinics as needed.
