Senior actuarial and forensic economics consultant role serving military medical malpractice claims and appeals across the United States. You will assess economic losses, model lost earnings and benefits, prepare defensible reports, and review competing analyses for government attorneys and legal teams. The position is fully remote and contractor-based.
