About the role

  • Lead the development of rigorous economic analyses to quantify the impact of Twin’s model on healthcare costs, utilization, and outcomes.
  • Apply and interpret robust analytic methods including difference-in-differences analyses, quasi-experimental designs, longitudinal outcomes evaluation, and actuarial-style cost modeling.
  • Translate clinical and utilization outcomes into defensible estimates of total cost of care impact and return on investment (ROI).
  • Ensure modeling frameworks align with how payer actuarial and medical economics teams evaluate vendor interventions and population health programs.
  • Maintain and evolve the economic models that underpin Twin’s ROI methodology, payer evaluations, and strategic insights.
  • Participate in payer and employer discussions to explain and defend Twin’s methodology for calculating PMPM (Per Member Per Month) savings, cost offsets, and ROI.
  • Partner with commercial and market access teams to translate economic findings into clear value narratives for health plans and self-insured employers.
  • Support development of payer-facing materials including economic evidence summaries, value dossiers, and executive briefing content.
  • Provide analytical guidance during strategic evaluations with benefit consultants, employer coalitions, and payer actuarial teams.
  • Design and maintain credible economic and actuarial models used for payer evaluation, strategic analysis, and external publications.
  • Ensure models are transparent, defensible, and aligned with industry expectations for total cost of care analysis across Commercial and Medicare Advantage populations.
  • Translate modeling outputs into strategic insights that inform internal planning, payer engagement, and market positioning.
  • Lead the development of economic and outcomes analyses that strengthen the evidence base supporting Twin’s clinical and financial impact.
  • Serve as lead author or key contributor on peer-reviewed publications focused on the economic and clinical impact of metabolic health interventions.
  • Develop white papers, market briefs, and executive perspectives aligned with Twin’s evidence and thought leadership agenda.
  • Analyze large-scale claims datasets (e.g., MarketScan, Optum, CMS LDS) to identify patient populations and utilization patterns relevant to Twin’s model.
  • Other duties as assigned.

Requirements

  • Experience presenting economic analyses to payer actuarial teams, employer benefit leaders, or healthcare executives.
  • Familiarity with Medicare Advantage economics, including the role of Star Ratings, quality incentives, and risk adjustment in payer financial performance.
  • Understanding of how payers evaluate total cost of care, ROI, and sustainability of healthcare interventions.
  • PhD or Master’s in Health Economics, Economics, Public Health, Biostatistics, Actuarial Science, or a related quantitative field.
  • Strong experience with economic modeling, causal inference methods, and healthcare cost analysis.
  • Proficiency in SQL and R or Python, with the ability to work directly with large healthcare datasets and develop analytic models.

  • Experience contributing to publications, white papers, conference presentations, or client-facing economic materials.
