• Draft substantive market access and branded-medicine policy positions representing Amneal's interests including regulatory comment letters, legislative proposals, policy briefs, and advocacy materials. 
• Lead advocacy on federal and private-market access, reimbursement, and drug pricing policy, including on CMS regulations and rulemaking, drug pricing legislation, and product-specific coverage and payment issues.
• Lead advocacy on discrete, product- and disease-specific issues for Amneal's branded portfolio (e.g., Parkinson's disease, migraine), including developing engagement strategies and building partnerships with patient advocacy organizations, medical societies, and pharmacy organizations.
• Build and maintain strategic relationships with Congress, CMS, HHS, and other federal agencies, and represent Amneal in industry trade associations, policy working groups, and coalition meetings.
• Partner cross-functionally with Commercial, Medical Affairs, Patient Advocacy, Legal, and Regulatory teams on market access strategy and policy implications for pipeline planning, product launches, and lifecycle management.
• Serve as an internal subject-matter expert on reimbursement, coverage, payment, and drug pricing policy, providing strategic guidance to Commercial, Market Access, Regulatory, Medical Affairs, and Executive Leadership teams.

Additional Responsibilities:

• Represents Amneal in external policy discussions, industry conferences, stakeholder meetings, and coalitions, advancing the company’s positions on reimbursement and branded pharmaceutical policy.
