About the Opportunity:
MacroHealth is transforming how healthcare organizations access, evaluate, and optimize solutions that improve healthcare economics. Through our healthcare marketplace, we connect payers with innovative solutions that help them manage costs, improve performance, and unlock value across multiple categories of healthcare spend.
We're seeking an accomplished Vice President, Sales (Health Plans) to expand our presence among health plans, including Blue Cross Blue Shield organizations. This is a highly specialized, consultative sales role requiring a sophisticated understanding of health plan economics, healthcare cost management, and the operational challenges facing payer organizations.
The ideal candidate brings broad experience identifying and selling healthcare spend optimization opportunities across medical, pharmacy, network, and other cost management categories, with particularly deep expertise in medical claims, payment optimization, and healthcare network economics.
We're looking for someone who can engage credibly with senior payer executives, understand the interconnected drivers of healthcare spend, and develop strategic relationships that create opportunities across our expanding marketplace of solutions.
What You'll Own:
Strategic Market Development & Growth
Develop and execute a targeted new-business strategy focused on regional and provider sponsored health plans including Blue Cross Blue Shield organizations.
Identify and pursue opportunities to optimize healthcare spend across medical claims, provider networks, pharmacy, payment integrity, and other healthcare cost management categories.
Establish trusted relationships with senior leaders responsible for medical economics, healthcare affordability, network management, claims operations, pharmacy, finance, and enterprise strategy.
Develop a comprehensive understanding of each prospect's cost structure, operational environment, existing vendor relationships, and strategic priorities.
Build and advance a high-quality pipeline of complex, high-value enterprise opportunities.
Enterprise Healthcare Spend Optimization
Lead sophisticated conversations with payer executives about the drivers of healthcare spend and opportunities to improve medical and pharmacy cost performance.
Evaluate customer needs holistically, identifying opportunities across multiple spend categories rather than approaching customers through a single product or solution.
Bring deep expertise in medical payment optimization, including out-of-network and out-of-area claims, reimbursement methodologies, payment integrity, and related cost containment strategies.
Demonstrate a strong understanding of healthcare network economics, including network access, provider reimbursement, network optimization, and alternative network solutions.
Understand the broader pharmacy cost management landscape, including PBM economics, specialty pharmacy, and opportunities for improved cost performance.
Translate complex healthcare economics into compelling business cases with measurable financial and operational outcomes.
Position MacroHealth's marketplace model as a differentiated approach to accessing, evaluating, and deploying solutions across multiple categories of healthcare spend.
Complex Enterprise Sales Execution
Own the full sales lifecycle, from market development and strategic prospecting through discovery, solution development, business case creation, negotiation, and contract execution.
Navigate complex payer buying environments involving Medical Economics, Network Management, Pharmacy, Finance, Procurement, Technology, and executive leadership.
Develop multithreaded relationships across customer organizations, building alignment among economic buyers, operational stakeholders, and executive sponsors.
Partner with MacroHealth's Product, Solution Consulting, and Operations teams to develop integrated solutions that address customer priorities.
Structure and negotiate sophisticated commercial arrangements, including performance-based and shared-savings models.
Maintain strong opportunity qualification, pipeline management, and forecasting discipline.
Identify opportunities to expand customer relationships across additional healthcare spend categories as business needs evolve.
Market Intelligence & Strategic Influence
Bring deep knowledge of the regional payer landscape, including market dynamics, competitive offerings, evolving cost management strategies, and emerging customer needs.
Provide insight into the specific operating structures, buying behaviors, and decision-making dynamics of regional and Blue Cross Blue Shield health plans.
Inform MacroHealth's commercial and product strategies through direct customer engagement and market intelligence.
Identify opportunities to expand our marketplace offerings and strengthen our competitive differentiation.
Represent MacroHealth as a credible industry expert and strategic partner to healthcare payer organizations.

Demonstrated ability to identify and develop opportunities across multiple solution categories, rather than selling a narrowly defined product.
Established relationships with regional and independent health plans and experience engaging senior payer executives.
Strong understanding of payer operating models, reimbursement methodologies, provider contracting, and medical cost management practices.
Proven ability to originate, develop, negotiate, and close complex enterprise sales opportunities involving multiple stakeholders and extended buying cycles.
