About the role
The Vice President of Market Access will lead the strategic direction for Precision Neuroscience's novel neurotechnology, focusing on the development of market access, reimbursement, and commercial infrastructure. This role requires a deep understanding of market access and reimbursement strategies, particularly within the context of Class III medical devices and neurotechnology.
Responsibilities
- Lead the end-to-end reimbursement strategy for a novel neurotechnology, encompassing coverage, coding, and payment pathways across CMS and commercial payers, from pre-approval planning through post-market expansion.
- Define pricing and contracting strategies that reflect the clinical, functional, and economic value of a BCI therapy, incorporating health economics, outcomes research, and payer value frameworks.
- Partner closely with clinical, regulatory, and medical affairs teams to shape evidence generation strategies (clinical trials, functional endpoints, RWE, HEOR) that support payer coverage, policy development, and long-term adoption.
- Build and lead the selection and implementation of core market access systems (e.g., CRM, analytics platforms) and establish a policy monitoring and payer analytics capability to inform reimbursement strategy and operations.
- Define and build the field reimbursement and provider support model, enabling neurologists, neurosurgeons, and health systems to navigate coverage, prior authorization, and revenue cycle processes for BCI procedures and devices.
- Manage and integrate external partners, including reimbursement advisors, neurotechnology consultants, and commercial service providers.
Requirements
- 10+ years of progressive market access leadership experience in medical devices, neurotechnology, biotechnology, or adjacent healthcare sectors, with meaningful exposure to Class III or implantable technologies.
- Strong preference for candidates with experience in neurotechnology, neuromodulation, brain–computer interfaces, implantable neural devices, or advanced neurotherapeutics.
- Deep expertise in market access and reimbursement, including CMS and commercial payer engagement, coding strategy, payment methodologies, and coverage policy development.
- Experience working closely with clinical, scientific, and regulatory teams to translate neuroscience-driven evidence into compelling payer and provider value propositions.
- Experience managing external agencies and negotiating vendor and consulting relationships.
- Strong understanding of the legal, regulatory, and compliance landscape for Class III medical devices and neurotechnology.
- Excellent communication and executive presence, with the ability to influence stakeholders from the Board of Directors to cross-functional scientific and commercial teams.
Qualifications
- Bachelor’s degree required; MBA, PhD, or other advanced degree strongly preferred, particularly in neuroscience, biomedical engineering, or a related field.
