Working At Applied Policy

Applied Policy is a health policy and reimbursement consulting firm strategically located in Alexandria, Virginia.  Our Applied Policy® services help organizations improve the lives of people by transforming intention into action. We apply our expertise in Medicare, Medicaid, and Health Insurance Exchanges to help health systems, post-acute care providers, physicians, insurers, diagnostic companies, medical device manufacturers, pharmaceutical companies, professional societies, trade associations, and patient advocacy organizations and others to improve the lives of the people they serve — whether they are sick or disabled, or are working to stay well.

Working At Applied Policy

We help organizations solve problems that keep patients from getting the healthcare services, technologies, and medicines they need. We internalize our client’s goals to help them advance their mission. We identify new opportunities, reframe challenges, empower people with information, and create long-term relationships. Our goal is to help our clients better serve their patients and customers, improving lives.

Members of the Applied Policy team work hard, are exceptional writers, and adapt quickly to changing schedules and client needs. There are periods of time that require juggling multiple deadlines and deliverables with several different clients.  We are a small, fast-paced business where teamwork is essential during the busiest times.

Applied Policy offers competitive salaries based on experience, performance bonuses, generous health insurance coverage, a 401(k) plan, paid vacation, and the opportunity to make a difference by improving lives.

Applied Policy is always interested in meeting individuals with a passion for health policy. If you like to work hard helping clients understand and manage the frequent changes in the policy landscape, please send your resume and cover letter to: jvoorhees@appliedpolicy.com
