A deep understanding of healthcare law, particularly in the areas of regulatory and contracting matters, is essential. The role also requires expertise in IT, cybersecurity, privacy, technology, intellectual property, real estate, payor contracting, corporate governance, and a strong background in anti-kickback, fraud, and abuse regulatory requirements.Applicants for the Deputy General Counsel position at the company should hold a Juris Doctor (JD) from an accredited law school and have a minimum of 10 years' substantive healthcare legal experience.

The position is not just about legal compliance; it is about enabling sound business decisions and advancing the organization's mission in a rapidly evolving healthcare landscape.
