Job Description

IG's client is a healthcare technology company that makes value-based care actually work. Their platform sits between health plans and providers, translating complex quality contracts into real-time, actionable incentives for clinical teams. When a medical assistant closes a care gap or a front desk staffer schedules a screening, they see the impact immediately. They help practices get paid for doing the right thing, and we help health plans see results from their quality investments.

Role Overview:
This Healthcare Contracts Paralegal will work directly with the Lead Attorney to support a value-based care technology platform and their risk-bearing entities (ACO, MSO, and IPA), handling first-pass drafting on commercial contracts that range from straightforward to complex.

Their agreements are diverse. They contract upstream with health plans and ACOs and downstream with physician practices. Their deal structures include SaaS vendor arrangements, aggregator models, physician services agreements, and sophisticated partnership agreements. If you like variety and want to understand how all the pieces fit together, you'll enjoy this work.
