Our role is to help ensure Veteran disability determination processes are supported by accurate, timely, and objective clinical assessments. We are expanding our national provider network and are seeking experienced Physicians (M.D. or D.O.) in the Albany, NY area to conduct structured medical disability examinations in support of Veterans. This is a flexible 1099 independent contractor opportunity offering per-exam compensation, with the ability to work in person and, where applicable, remotely, without ongoing treatment or patient panel obligations.

  • Provide medical opinions that support disability claim determinations, ensuring clear and thorough documentation.
  • Communicate professionally with clinic sites, administrative staff, and claim representatives as needed.
