Job description

Physician Assistant or Nurse Practitioner

Company Description

Livara is reimagining musculoskeletal care for value-based provider groups and health plans. With an interdisciplinary, biopsychosocial, and high-touch clinical model, Livara works with payors, risk-bearing providers, and health systems to improve outcomes, reduce costs, and fill gaps in the current musculoskeletal (MSK) care model.

Livara, created by way of the legacy SpineZone business alongside investments by A1 Health Ventures, Martin Ventures, Polaris Partners, and Providence Ventures, operates a hybrid clinical model. The company’s digital care delivery, care management, and care navigation platform offers online services in 14 states while in-person care is provided through 10 company-owned SpineZone clinic sites in Southern California and partnerships with 3rd party clinics elsewhere. The high touch, multi-service focus allows patients to get the high-quality care they need.

With the MSK space being extremely fragmented and lacking cohesion between Primary Care Physicians, Physical Therapists, and Surgeons, there are many barriers for companies to enter the value-based care world. Livara’s fully integrated pathway brings everything together in one place, creating a seamless experience. The company brings a highly clinical and data-driven approach to MSK care, with a solution focused on 3 main pillars: care planning, care delivery, and care navigation. The system is designed to predict and qualify clinical risk factors to highlight where the biggest impact is going to be. From there, Livara is able to take the continuous flow of data from the patient to the clinician and quickly adjust any treatment course based on these results.

Livara is pioneering value-based contracts in the MSK space, headed by CEO Rob Cohen and Co-Founder and Chief Medical Officer (CMO) Kamshad Raiszadeh. Unlike most competitors, the company takes on risk and focuses on Medicare and fully insured populations, with key partners that include Elevance, Providence, and Scripps.
