And the best part is you do not need to be terribly qualified. You just need to have a GED, two years of work experience and only make mistakes in 20% of your cases (what else could 80% accuracy mean?).

HIG Capital has reportedly been spending some serious capital upgrading the badly floundering PMSI. But clearly they are not at all interested in investing in the human capital required to produce a top notch Medicare Set-Aside product.

For a company that has been in the MSA business for a pretty long time, it is hard to believe they still don't get it. Read their job description and then compare it to MEDVAL’s newest “MSA Specialist I”.
