In-House Counsel - St Louis - WellRithms, Inc.
Description
Who We Are
WellRithms is a rapidly growing company boldly transforming the landscape of healthcare reimbursement. Our mission is to create transparency in the healthcare industry by educating and empowering payers, patients, and providers about proper medical billing payments through our data, legal, and medical expertise.

Our Ideal Candidate
WellRithms is looking to add a talented and experienced In-house Counsel to our expanding Workers' Compensation team. The In-House Counsel will manage and oversee workers' compensation claims and handle various litigation matters for the company.
