Objectives & Responsibilities

This reporting position entails covering business, policy, financial and legal news affecting the healthcare industry with a focus on providers and insurers. Qualified applicants must have a deep interest in the industry and be able to tell stories that go beyond the price of stocks or basic news. They must be able to dig deeper into trends, policy and programs that are changing the way healthcare is delivered and paid for in the U.S. and explain why it matters to the business of healthcare.

This position reports, writes and produces for all Modern Healthcare print and digital publications and is expected to generate other forms of editorial content including but not limited to blog posts, podcasts, video, webcasts and social media. Might be worth adding in something about output expectations. A GA is expected to file daily briefs and work on long-form features and analysis that can illustrate their passion and insight into the industry.
