# Consulting Physician, Evidence-Based Pathways

Otter Health is seeking a Consulting Physician, Evidence-Based Pathways

## Who We Are

Otter Health is a venture-backed startup revolutionizing utilization management in healthcare. Founded by leaders in healthcare and technology, Otter Health is building a disruptive technology that is going to change the current paradigm of utilization management, bringing efficiency, compassion, and care to patients, providers, and payers.

## What You'll Do

We are seeking board-certified physicians across a wide range of specialties to partner with us as Consulting Physicians. This is not a typical policy-writing role. As a consultant, you will be a foundational architect of our clinical intelligence. You will translate your deep specialty-specific expertise and the best available medical evidence into clear, logical, and data-driven "pathways" that will define appropriate care on our platform.

This is a flexible, project-based consulting engagement perfect for a clinician who is passionate about evidence-based medicine, frustrated with the status quo, and excited to help build the future of healthcare administration.

## Your Key Responsibilities:

#### Develop Clinical Pathways

Author and peer-review evidence-based clinical pathways for your specialty. These pathways will be the "source of truth" for determining medically appropriate care on the Otter Health platform.

#### Conduct Targeted Evidence Synthesis

Perform focused reviews of medical literature, professional society guidelines, and pivotal clinical trials to ensure every pathway is built on a rock-solid evidence base.

#### Define Clinical Logic

Identify the key clinical data points, diagnostic criteria, imaging results, and treatment milestones that define a patient’s journey. Your work will directly inform the logic and algorithms of our platform.

#### Critically Appraise Evidence

Apply your clinical judgment to assess the quality of evidence, balancing efficacy, safety, and value to create pragmatic and effective pathways.

#### Collaborate with a Tech-Forward Team

Work alongside Otter Health’s product, engineering, and data science teams to ensure your clinical insights are translated accurately into our technology platform.

## Required Skills

- Medical degree (MD or DO) with current board certification in your specialty.
- A minimum of 5 years of post-residency clinical practice, giving you a deep understanding of real-world patient care.
- Demonstrable experience with evidence synthesis, such as authoring clinical guidelines for a professional society, serving on a P&T or Technology Assessment Committee, or developing medical policies for a payer/SBM.
- An analytical and structured thinker, capable of deconstructing complex clinical scenarios into logical steps and decision points.
- An excellent writer with the ability to communicate complex medical concepts clearly and concisely.
- Comfortable working in a fast-paced, innovative, and technology-driven environment. You are excited by the prospect of building something new.
