Your role at Baxter

Bardy Diagnostics, Inc. (“BardyDx”), part of Baxter, is an innovative leader in digital health and remote patient monitoring. We focus on delivering the most diagnostically accurate and patient‑friendly cardiac and vital‑sign patch monitors in the industry. Our flagship product, the Carnation Ambulatory Monitor (CAM) Patch, holds FDA 510(k) clearance and CE Mark approval and is used across the U.S. and multiple international markets.

The CAM Patch is a non‑invasive, P‑wave centric™ ambulatory cardiac monitor designed for exceptional diagnostic clarity and patient comfort. Worn discreetly on the center of the chest, it captures high‑quality ECG signals and provides superior P‑wave detection—critical for accurate arrhythmia diagnosis. Its lifestyle‑enabling design supports both adults and children over 22 pounds, setting a new standard for compliance and clinical confidence.

Position Overview & Purpose:

This is a remote position based in the United States.

BardyDx is building a team of passionate, mission‑driven individuals who share an entrepreneurial spirit and a commitment to advancing patient care. We foster a collaborative, “family‑like” culture across our commercial organization as we continue to grow.

We are seeking a Contracting Manager who will play a pivotal role in expanding access to our state‑of‑the‑art cardiac monitoring technology. In this role, you will initiate, manage, and grow relationships with third‑party payors across your assigned territory. You’ll work cross‑functionally to elevate market awareness of the CAM Patch and help drive its adoption as the new standard of care in cardiac monitoring.

Your team

This role sits within one of Baxter’s fastest‑growing businesses, partnering directly with a seasoned leader who has spent more than five years building a high‑performing, tight‑knit payer contracting team. You’ll join a group that collaborates closely, moves quickly, and genuinely enjoys solving problems together. The position replaces a team member who advanced significantly in the role — offering you the same opportunity for growth.

You’ll be the driving force behind expanding payer access for the CAM Patch, a best‑in‑market device with a compelling origin story and clear clinical advantages. Your work will center on opening new doors, identifying the right payer contacts, and advancing conversations that bring our products in‑network. If you thrive on outreach, persistence, and turning a “no” into a “yes,” this environment will energize you.

This is a role with meaningful autonomy, high visibility, and strong long‑term growth potential. You’ll focus on building new payer relationships, collaborating with sales and billing teams, and supporting our expansion into Medicare and Medicaid markets nationwide. While senior leaders handle rate negotiation, you will be the catalyst who creates the opportunities that drive revenue and expand patient access. With structured onboarding, hands‑on mentorship, and a product that resonates deeply with payors, you’ll be positioned to make a measurable impact. It’s an ideal fit for someone who is hungry, resilient, analytical, and excited to help shape the future of a rapidly growing business.

What you'll be doing

• Initiate, manage, and expand contracted relationships with third‑party payors, ensuring competitive reimbursement rates and favorable payment terms.

• Develop and execute quarterly strategic and tactical plans to secure contracts with targeted payors.

• Prioritize and coordinate payor relationships to align with BardyDx’s customer base and Sales Team initiatives.

• Identify and cultivate growth opportunities across diverse payer segments, including Managed Care Organizations (MCOs), Health Maintenance Organizations (HMOs), Preferred Provider Organizations (PPOs), Independent Practice Associations (IPAs), self‑insured employers, and unions.

• Support clinical and economic trials and create case studies that communicate value propositions to payors.

• Develop strategic relationships with key stakeholders across emerging healthcare delivery models—including Accountable Care Organizations (ACOs), Integrated Health Networks (IHNs), and Patient‑Centered Medical Homes (PCMHs)—as well as major employer groups.

• Lead payor contracting activities, including developing data‑supported proposals, negotiating pricing and terms, and reviewing contract language with internal stakeholders.

• Maintain accurate documentation, track contract status and renewals, and strengthen agreements into partnership‑focused or exclusive contracts while supporting market expansion efforts.

Payor Contracting:

• Develop and present solutions with supporting data, with the goal of obtaining contracts which support the BardyDx’s product portfolio and pricing structure.

• Negotiate pricing and terms and present outcome to the Chief Commercial Officer for feedback and subsequent approval.

• Review contract language and other pertinent documents with utmost detail and communicate findings back to Chief Commercial Officer and General Counsel.

• Document and maintain files in company format on all payor accounts.

• Track status and renewal of all contracts within assigned geography.

• Demonstrate a creative approach to strengthen contractual relationships into more partnership focused and exclusive types of contracts.

• Support expansion of BardyDx by providing insight, strategic plan, and payor attractiveness in target market.

What you'll bring

• 2+ years of successful experience in healthcare insurance/payer contracting preferred.

• Bachelor’s degree or equivalent experience in related field preferred.

• Proven sales experience, including successful communication, presentation, teamwork, and negotiating skills.

• Knowledge of cardiology and experience selling cardiac‑related products preferred but not required.

• Established relationships with payer organizations preferred but not required.

• Proficiency with Windows and Microsoft Office applications, in addition to Salesforce, preferred.
