 | AmeriHealth is currently recruiting physicians to join our Policy Committee Advisory Panel. This panel is responsible for evaluating the scientific evidence and local standards of care addressed in our medical policies. Medical policies are research-based documents that allow AmeriHealth to evaluate the medical necessity of services, devices, biologics, and procedures for its members. In addition, medical policies provide guidelines for obtaining benefits and reimbursement in accordance with a member’s plan. As a volunteer consultant on the Policy Committee Advisory Panel, you will evaluate proposed medical policies based on your area(s) of expertise. As such, your contributions will significantly impact the care of patients in your region.
At this time, AmeriHealth is seeking physician consultants in the following specialties:
- Neurosurgery

- Maintain a high ethical standard, evidenced by the absence of any AmeriHealth investigation into personal or group claims practices.
