About the role
Babylist Health is expanding its footprint with insurance payers — moving beyond DME breast pump coverage into insurance-covered classes and additional services. This role owns growing coverage for our core DME business as well as owning the expansion to classes and services. You will be negotiating and closing contracts with commercial payers, from national players like Aetna and UnitedHealthcare down to smaller regional plans, and finding another way in when a payer's first answer is no.
What they're looking for
- You have 8+ years of experience in healthcare and insurance industries within a business development, partnerships, or payer contracting role. Ideally in a startup environment
- You have a deep understanding of the insurance payer landscape, what motivates payers to form partnerships (and how this varies across payers), and how to build a compelling payer value proposition
- You have an understanding of or direct experience with insurance access strategies in health care services. Bonus if experience is in the DME space
- A plus if you have a background working with or at a commercial insurance payer
- Ability to build relationships and secure contracts with all types of insurance payers, from big commercial payers to smaller local payers
- You excel at building relationships with key decision makers and have a proven track record of success in developing payer segment strategies and securing in-network access across different payer types

You will be negotiating and closing contracts with commercial payers, from national players like Aetna and UnitedHealthcare down to smaller regional plans, and finding another way in when a payer's first answer is no. Once a contract is signed, you'll partner closely with our payer operations team to get payers live and patients ordering as fast as possible. The job doesn't stop at the signature — you're expected to build relationships with the program leads and thought leaders inside a payer (maternal health, maternity investment) who can turn a contract into a broader partnership, like preferred DME provider status driving adoption of Babylist's registry and courses.
